Friends of WorldHope Corps,

We need your help next week to complete our 2012 mission pledges and projects in Malawi:

2.  The grand opening of the new Hope House (for educational support) occurs on Saturday, Jan. 12.

3.  Five of the ten new Village Wells we drilled in 2012 will be celebrated with villagers.


4.  The Mzuzu Shalom Zone Committee will assemble for training and planning.

You can participate by adding your name to the list of sponsors who have supported these community development projects this year, at whatever level you are able to do!

Let the River Flow: Why WorldHope Corps digs village wells

  Sunday Sermon at the The Water's Edge in OB , San Diego, CA. "Woman at the Well" (John 4:7-15) When you think about the gospel story of the Samaritan woman with Jesus at Jacob’s well, I’d like you to picture this Woman at a similar well in northern Malawi. Sitting and talking with Pastor Dennis Singini about water. Her name is Nyang'oma, which means "drum." Her Christian name is Mary Botha. She is 85 years old and lives in a village in the Kampenda area of Northern Malawi. She has cared for 11 children, two of whom have died. And her husband has died. When Dennis and I first met Mary in 2008, her village did not have a deep well or access to clean water. Nor did the six surrounding villages with over 1,500 people. Women and children had to drink with animals from shallow seasonal wells or walk about of 5km away to drink from the closest stream. Sometimes they would get sick and complain of stomach aches. Cholera and dysentery were widespread, and m...

The Kendrick Well for Pentecost

--> THE KENDRICK WELL Donija Village, Malawi June 2019 Donor Report submitted by Dennis Singini, Director, WorldHope Corps Malawi with Michael Christensen, Director of WorldHope Corps, Inc.  June 18, 2019 The Donija Village Area in northern Malawi has never had safe water, and they had to drink water from streams where domestic and wild animals used to quench their thirst too.   Many children under the age of five died each year from water-borne diseases.   On 25 th May 2019 , in response to their prayers, the people of DONIJA Village saw big trucks entering their village.   The children were excited to follow the trucks from behind without knowing where they were heading to and why. It was a good dawn for the people of DONIJA Village and the surrounding villages. Ironically Donija villagers were denied a borehole ten years ago when they presented the need and their water challenge to the Community Development Committee. ...
