Mission Malawi 2011 Kick Off

A group of 7 young people from Wendover/London aged 16-17 along with 3 leaders are heading out to Malawi at the end of July to take part in a 3 week Short Term Mission trip. We are going through a charity called Africa Link, which supports some fab projects in Malawi aiming to alleviate poverty in Malawi.

Matthew 28:19

                   “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations”

Matthew talks about our calling to serve God in mission, and this Short Term Mission trip presents the perfect opportunity for young people in the UK to meet with God and develop their thoughts and ideas on global mission and our call to serve.


Here's a bit more information on the trip and Africa Link:

Africa Link is a poverty alleviation charity working in Malawi, Africa. In 2008, Africa Link sent a team of 6 girls (between 16 and 19 years old) along with 3 leaders on its first Short Term Mission trip: Mission Malawi. The team spent 3 weeks in different ministry areas, working as a team on various projects. The team were blessed with the enthusiasm to get fully involved in the work of orphanages, rural villages, schools and youth clubs as well as taking some well earned time off to relax and reflect on the trip.

Our aim is to make God’s love known where it isn’t, and to take people on a structured, organised adventure that exposes each individual to a different way of life, and challenges the way we think. Each trip lasts approximately 3 weeks, with some built in ‘down time’ to relax. This enables the team the chance to unwind, have fun and reflect on experiences.

This is the place to check out for updates and information on the trip for the team as well as for friends and family to stay in touch whilst we are in Malawi.

We want to preach the gospel and bring the glorious news of Jesus Christ. Africa Link does this through providing individuals with the opportunity to get involved in practical aid work, educational outreach and project building on a purpose-built Short Term Mission trip. It is a great opportunity for first timers and well travelled individuals alike. Africa Link looks after all elements of the trip including flights, finance, fundraising, and full pre-departure briefing and training.
