Our vision in Malawi is to see people and entire communities being transformed through the preaching of the gospel and the equipping of true believers for ministry and service. By equipping Christians, we hope to mobilise the local church to reach out to those who do now know Christ.
Malawi is one of Africa’s landlocked countries, perhaps best known for beautiful Lake Malawi and the country’s friendly, open-hearted people.
Thousands of people ‘disappeared’ during the 30-year dictatorship that ruled the country until 1994, and today 85% of the rural population lives in poverty, surviving on less than one US dollar a day. Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world.
OM didn’t have a presence in Malawi until 2005 when we took a research mission to the country. A few months later, OM in Malawi was founded.
Thank You for the diverse country of Malawi, with a unique mixture of ancient and modern. Thank You for the many positive changes the country has experienced in the areas of technology, business, education and help for the disabled. We pray that the small Christian community can use the increasing openness of Malawians to spread Your gospel and speak the hope desired by everyone into a nation marked by poverty and illiteracy.
