Lilongwe West CIFA Group continues to champion holistic transformation
Four years later, we can see the fruit of the seeds of holistic transformation among the 11 pastor leaders of Lilongwe West CIFA group. Today, we share key indicators of what the Whole Gospel, affecting the pastors’ heads, hearts, hands and heels has achieved so far, as they take their leadership positions to champion holistic transformation in their community.
