What a promise! 2 Thessalonians 3:3 “For the Lord is faithful, He will strengthen you and protect you.”
Dear Ministry Partners, with this WORD in me, I am running the race to serve Him with all my heart. Thank you for sending me! Thank you also for all the birthday wishes this month. On June 5, I was traveling in Zambia, and the lodge owner in Lusaka spoiled me like never before. On arrival, I received a foot massage and a special three-course meal. I also received special gifts from Israel, which deeply touched my heart. A maiden of God served me with great care and love. This is our God!
Thank you for the prayers these past months. The training in Ulundi, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, mainly among the Zulu tribe, went well. We sent 50 students back to their areas equipped to evangelize and disciple children and challenged them to train 20 others to do the same. This commitment will release 1,000 child evangelists on the ground in this area.

In May, more than 150 students were charged with training others in Zimbabwe and Zambia. I believe this could release 3,000 child evangelists in these nations. Planning meetings were held in June on the Island of Zanzibar to train and deploy as many children evangelists as possible to win the island for Christ. Pray this comes together as the Pastor’s Network embraces these training programs in 2025/2026 in Zanzibar, an area governed under Islamic rule.

As part of our training, we have 12-day programs in each country. The Sunday services are used to speak to the congregations about developing missional families. We call the fathers to be responsible for laying spiritual truths as their foundation, and for families to be part of the Great Commission.

Through our program, we visited schools, and kids learned songs to always remind them that God is a very Good Father. We sang songs like “God’s Not Dead”, along with 11 more songs that lift the name of Jesus up, are filled with scripture, and encourage consecration and the encouragement to go and tell.

I just arrived back in Malawi. My first stop was in the capital city of Lilongwe to meet with leaders. The aim is to work together to embrace trained students and usher them into their ministry call. Our hope is to allow them to work hand in hand with the Child Evangelism Fellowship in Malawi. The National Children’s Ministry Director in Malawi has been invited to attend further training to become an accredited course instructor. Pray with us, as we need the resources to send her.

The National Children’s Ministry Director for Burundi is on her way to the Children’s Ministry Institute in Zambia. Pray for her resources and a safe journey. It costs $2,000 for her to attend. If you would like to help cover the costs to make this training possible, you can give to World Missions Project, CHILD EVANGELISM AFRICA #10004P.
At the end of the week, I will arrive in Blantyre. I will be unpacking and preparing to travel to the lowest part of Malawi, Nsanje, at the end of June, to present Child Evangelism training in the area where many kids grow up in the street and market. Being in a village on the border, these kids are born to young girls who the incoming Mozambique vendors often impregnate. They are left to face their challenge and hide the shame. The babies are often delivered in a bush or pit latrine and raised by rescuers on the streets. They need hope, and the youth need God’s Word. Pray for fuel to travel, as there is no fuel in the country. The little that comes in leaves vehicles stranded for days on the streets in a never-ending fuel waiting line.
The next missionary journey is on July 17 to the Reunion Island. Thank the Lord for the National Leaders and teams who welcome us in each country. They are supporting the training to achieve all the goals for continued development.
Pray for impact in Reunion and for open doors in Namibia to plan training. I have also been in ZOOM sessions with Lesotho this week to plan training there. Pray all will fall into place and for a person of peace who will be willing to call in workers to be trained in Child Evangelism and other developing programs to serve kids. I thank God for this mission we partner together in to train as many children’s workers as possible. I long to reach every child, win families for Christ, and win the nations who will go to the unreached.
I am grateful we are in the harvest field together and for prayer partners to accomplish His mission with His resources and power. Please pray over the seeds you are planting in this ministry as we work to bear much fruit.
Blessings,
Althea Meyer
