Member of Parliament for Kasungu North East Madalitso Kambauwa Wirima has on Sunday donated K10 million to Thumba CCAP in the area of Senior Chief Wimbe in Kasungu for the construction of a new church house.
Presenting the donation, Wirima who is also Minister of Education said she felt obliged to donate after being impressed by the effort Christians at the church have made towards the project.
Among other things, the Christians mobilized bricks and start up cement for the project.
“As someone who comes from this area, I felt obliged to help in the project, to seek the blessings of God and we will keep supporting them until their dream of a new church house is accomplished,” said Wirima.
She urged people to alway invest in churches because they are a key stakeholder in human development and the society.
Receiving the donation, the resident minister of Thumba CCAP, Reverend Berson Magombo, thanked the MP for fulfilling her pledge.
“We thank you, and may God bless you. We have been trying but due to financial constraints, the project was delayed so this is a huge boost,” said Reverend Magombo.
The project is estimated to cost slightly over K100 million.
Thumba CCAP was opened in 1946.
