Sabbath School is the heartbeat of the church, its vision is that every member becomes an accomplished Bible student and a soul winner in this endeavor. Every Christian becomes attached to the Lord by reading daily guide that renew our spiritual lives.

The spirit of inviting Sabbath School guests is essential as it increases membership. If well planned is a powerful tool for evangelism.

Publishing Department
Glory be to God always for guiding the Publishing work ever since its inception. E.G.

The Central Malawi Conference Publishing Department has 220 workforce and ten Assistant Publishing leaders, that toil day by day to reach every humanity. Central region has a population of over 6 million of which 75,000 are Adventist. The department is planning to train and recruit more Literature Evangelists to meet the increasing demand. We argue every church member to buy at least one copy and give free to nonAdventist friends and neighbors. It is the only way to hasten Christ soon coming.
Those also who want to join this mighty army of literature Evangelists are welcome to the fold.
Also note that missionary book of the year titled Health and wellness (Thanzi ndi Moyo wa Bwino) will be available by June end. As such, churches are encouraged to pay or deposit their money with CMC before the consignment is available on the stated period. Wishing you God’s blessings as you think about participating in this important exercise.
