HILLSBOROUGH CHURCH TEAM BUILD HALL IN MALAWI
HILLSBOROUGH Presbyterian Church Mission Malawi Team have safely and successfully returned from their recent trip to Malawi.
After a winter of fundraising and the team paying their own expenses, the project to build a pre-school in the Northern Malawian village of Kasoba became a reality.
With eight days of building, combined with a bible school, the trip proved to be a life changing experience for the members.
Kasoba is a village that is served by Diane Cussick, a member of the Presbyterian Church of Ireland team and no other Europeans have ever visited the area. The welcome they received was magnificent with the villagers joining in the construction of the school at every possible opportunity.
A service of Reflection and Thanksgiving was held in the church on Sunday August 31 at 10.30am. Members of the local community were welcomed to the service.
After the service tea and coffee were available and members of the team were there to discuss their experiences with anyone who wanted to find out more.
