Partnerships
Devana Parish Church has partnerships with two congregations in Malawi: Chigodi CCAP and Kachere CCAP, both in Blantyre Synod.
There is regular email communication between our churches and a fund is maintained to support the twinning. Financial support has been given to Chigodi Church to enable their building to be completed and dedicated in November 2011, and more recently to assist in the building of a manse for the minister of the congregation.
In the Summer of 2015, as part of a delegation from Aberdeen Presbytery, Rev Peter Johnston, spent two weeks in Malawi, part of which time was spent with our brothers and sisters in Chigodi. For some reflections on that trip please see https://sway.com/o4CCr_fTGBfN31z0 for his online blog from the journey. A video reflection on the experience is available below.
