More than twenty years ago, Children for Christ Ministry (CFCM) began with a group of students at the Evangelical Bible College of Malawi (EBCoM) who shared a passion for helping children hear and understand God’s Word. Recognising that children’s ministry was often overlooked in local churches, they committed themselves to training Sunday school teachers whereverContinue reading “Preparing Future Church Leaders to Reach Children with God’s Word”

This year, CFCM introduced an exciting new element to its seminar programme — demonstration Bible clubs. Instead of ending the training with only theory and discussion, the final afternoon now bursts into life as children gather for a real Bible club, involving the newly trained teachers under the guidance of CFCM trainers.

This Easter, God was powerfully at work among the children of Malawi. Over five unforgettable days, CFCM teams delivered Easter 5‑Day Clubs in five locations, proclaiming the Gospel through stories of lives radically turned around. Attendance soared, hearts were changed, and families noticed the difference — all made possible by committed volunteers who refused toContinue reading “Easter Hope in Action Across Malawi”

In a landmark development for 2026, Children for Christ Ministry is expanding its reach by publishing training manuals in Tumbuka for the first time. As Malawi’s third major language—following the official languages of Chichewa and English—this translation marks a significant step in supporting ministry across the Northern Region.

These are the words of CFCM team leader, Elevate Mizinga, looking back over the two days spent together with the volunteer team. The first CFCM Team Conference was a major milestone on CFCM’s journey to having a trainer in each of Malawi’s 28 districts.

The Word of God is described in Psalm 19:10 as “sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb.” CFCM has first hand experience of extracting honey from the honeycomb.

Children for Christ Ministry is led by Elevate Mizinga and Joseph Jeke. They work out of the CFCM office in Blantyre and run several local Bible clubs. But they also travel throughout the whole country to deliver training and encouragement to children’s workers in every corner. Let’s find out what they have been up toContinue reading “Our busy office staff”

Always eager to achieve the best results, Children for Christ Ministry is focusing on how to improve the effectiveness of its training programme for Sunday school teachers. Creating opportunities for practical experience is one way being explored.

On Saturday 15th March Esther Lipenga became CFCM’s first qualified volunteer trainer in Mangochi district. Her husband, her son and her pastor were present to witness her passing the final assessment as she trained 40 Sunday school teachers at Makawa, Mangochi.
