The Nkhoma Synod of the CCAP (Church of Central Africa Presbyterian) has announced its intention to provide spiritual solace to the families affected by the tragic plane crash on June 10, 2024. This initiative aims to offer prayers and words of comfort during a period of national mourning.
Reverend Edward Tembo, Moderator of the Nkhoma Synod, expressed these intentions during a condolence visit to Kamuzu Palace in Lilongwe. The visit was an opportunity for the church to extend its condolences to President Dr Lazarus Chakwera on the passing of Vice President Dr Saulos Chilima and eight others who lost their lives in the crash.
In his remarks, Reverend Tembo emphasized that Kamuzu Palace marked the beginning of the Synod’s efforts to console the families of the nine victims. The Synod plans to visit each bereaved family to offer prayers and words of encouragement, reflecting its commitment to providing spiritual support during times of grief.
The Nkhoma Synod’s initiative underscores the role of faith-based organizations in supporting communities through compassion and prayer. By extending its condolences directly to the President and planning visits to the affected families, the Synod exemplifies its dedication to walking alongside those who are grieving and providing comfort in times of tragedy.
This gesture not only strengthens the bond between the church and its community but also demonstrates solidarity with the nation as a whole as it mourns the loss of those who perished in the plane crash. Through these efforts, the Nkhoma Synod seeks to uphold the values of compassion and empathy that are integral to its mission of serving the people of Malawi.
