Great Commandment Workshop Empowers 251 Ministry Leaders to Serve Orphaned Children

On Saturday, Lusaka, Zambia became the gathering place for a powerful move of God as 251 ministry leaders came together for the Great Commandment Workshop at Saint Paul’s United Church of Zambia. This impactful event was born out of much prayer and a deep desire to equip the Body of Christ to respond to the Biblical call to care for orphaned and vulnerable children.

A key highlight of the day was the commissioning of 193 individuals as GO! Ambassadors. These newly commissioned leaders made a public commitment to serve orphan children in their churches, communities, and beyond — carrying the message of love, advocacy, and practical support.

When Hope Was Born: My First Journey to Zambia

In 2006, I stood in front of the congregation at Kitwe Central Church in Zambia, heart heavy and trembling with both grief and purpose.

In the previous year, my wife and I had lost our daughter, Faith. It’s a pain that doesn’t fully go away—a kind of ache that reshapes who you are. And yet, somehow, I knew that her story had meaning beyond the pain. God wanted to turn our experience with Faith into something meaningful beyond just our family.

Christmas Blessing

Eighteen years ago, we were preparing to deploy our family to Juarez, Mexico, for our very first international mission. We were busy gathering gifts for 20 children that year along with some other supplies for an orphanage located there. It was an exciting time venturing into the unknown with only our faith to guide us!

While we might be larger as a group than eighteen years ago, we also have many commitments that didn’t exist then. It was a simpler time, but our faith continues to guide us into the unknown.
