Rev. Thomas Nyang’ama of Soche CCAP in Blantyre has urged men in the country to deepen their faith and seek support from one another to overcome life’s challenges.
Speaking at the graduation ceremony of the church’s men’s ministry on Sunday, Nyang’ama acknowledged the numerous pressures men face and emphasized the importance of spiritual guidance in coping with stress.
Nyang’ama encouraged men to be open about their struggles, citing the importance of community and support in preventing feelings of isolation that can lead to suicidal thoughts.
He also called on men’s spouses to be supportive and understanding, even in difficult times.
On his part,the church’s session clerk,William Namate,expressed gratitude to the men who participated in the ministry and encouraged others to join the next cohort.
The graduation ceremony was held under the theme “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to you (James 1:5)”.
