Describe the primary goal of the project

To establish and provide property and buildings for the UMC of Zambia and to minister to the spiritual, physical and intellectual needs of the church and the surrounding community and countries to Zambia. We work toward helping Zambia become a full conference of it’s own and recognized around the world as an established United Methodist conference. The ministries and projects that come out of not only the New Life Center, but any other established place or office in Zambia will help lead people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ through not only words, but also deeds.

Describe the change you would like to see in the community as a result of this Advance project

Spiritually sound Christian leaders and lay people. Handicap people given the ability to go where they want and learn and participate in life outside of their own homes. UM church congregations meeting in their own church building instead of in school classrooms, under trees or in people’s homes. Educated students able to succeed in the new technological society. Printed materials in the hands of people instead of just on shelves in bookstores because of the high price tag.
