August/September 2008
Tim visited Niassa for two weeks in August and September 2008, partly in response to an earlier invitation from Helen van Koevering to visit Lichinga. He was part of a group from Christ Church, Kenilworth, in Cape Town, which was teaching on repentance in prayer. The group visited the Lakeshore communities of Messumba and Chuanga, and also attended and helped at a training programme: ‘Growing the Church’ in Lichinga.
Since returning from Niassa, Tim’s church, St Matthew’s Fulham, has decided to establish a link with St John’s Chiia, in Niassa.
Tim was visiting Helen’s church, SS Simao and Judas in Nzinze, on the day when the five photos below were taken and he has provided the explanatory comments.
