Nearly 2,000 families in Chiradzulu are celebrating a wave of relief following the provision of maize and cash aid from the Salvation for All Ministry. The initiative, spearheaded by Apostle Clifford Kawinga, has been hailed as a timely intervention in a district struggling with severe hunger.
Apostle Kawinga, the leader of the ministry, emphasized that helping those in need is a responsibility for everyone, underscoring the interconnectedness of serving God and addressing the needs of the less fortunate.
The aid distribution event, held at Chikangu Primary School in the area of Traditional Authority (T/A) Mpunga, brought together hundreds of people, including 113 chiefs who received Bibles from the ministry.
Group Village Head Masuku, one of the attending chiefs, expressed deep gratitude to Salvation for All for their support. “This assistance has come at a critical time when hunger in this district has reached alarming levels,” said Masuku.
The efforts of Salvation for All extend beyond Chiradzulu. The ministry has provided similar aid to families in other districts, including Mulanje, Chikwawa, Zomba, Machinga, Ntcheu, and Phalombe. This broad scope demonstrates the ministry’s commitment to reaching vulnerable communities across Malawi.
Apostle Kawinga reiterated the importance of collaboration in addressing societal challenges. “The church is not only about spiritual nourishment but also about practical support for the suffering. Our mission is to bring holistic salvation—both spiritual and physical—to those in need,” he said.
For the families in Chiradzulu and beyond, the aid has been a lifeline. As hunger continues to impact rural areas, initiatives like these provide hope and a reminder that unity and compassion can help overcome even the toughest challenges.
The ministry’s gesture also serves as an inspiration for other organizations and individuals to step up and contribute toward alleviating the suffering of vulnerable communities.
“Salvation for All” is more than just a name; it is a mission in action, bringing light to those in darkness and hope to those in despair.
