Food Relief Efforts Ease Hunger, Suffering
Hunger in Southern Zambia: A Daily Struggle
In the rural communities of southern Zambia, life depends on the rhythm of the rains. Most residents are subsistence farmers—families who grow their own food and sell what little they can spare to earn an income. But when the rains don’t come, crops fail. When crops fail, hunger follows. Erratic and unpredictable rainfall has made food insecurity a harsh reality for many. Families who once lived off the land now face empty fields, empty bowls, and uncertain futures.
Namwianga Mission: Providing Food and Hope
In times of need, Namwianga Mission steps in with a powerful message of hope and help. Through the Zambia Mission Fund Food Relief, we provide desperately needed food to individuals and communities suffering from crop failure and hunger.
Our food relief efforts focus on delivering mealie meal, a finely ground maize that is the staple of the Zambian diet. Mealie meal is used to make nshima, a daily dish that sustains families across the region.

How It Works
1. Local Leaders Identify Needs.Trusted church leaders submit food relief requests on behalf of families and individuals within their communities who are facing hunger.
2. Strategic Bulk Purchasing. With the help of donor contributions, Namwianga leaders purchase mealie meal in large quantities—negotiating favorable prices to maximize every dollar.
3. Delivering Relief with Purpose. The maize is loaded onto a flatbed truck and transported to rural communities. Members of the Evangelism and Spiritual Growth Team (ESGT) accompany each delivery.
4. Sharing the Bread of Life. At each distribution site, the ESGT leads a worship service, sharing the message that the food is given in the name of Jesus Christ—offering not only physical nourishment but spiritual encouragement.
5. Feeding All in Need. Food is distributed to families based on need, regardless of their church affiliation or beliefs. All are welcomed. All are fed. All leave with gratitude and thanksgiving to God.
Seeds for the Future
During times of severe drought, Namwianga Mission also provides seeds to farmers—empowering them to plant again and rebuild for the next harvest. It’s not just about relief; it’s about restoration and renewed hope.
