Enable -- Equipping and Empowering the Next Generation

At LWCC, we believe the gospel has no borders. Enable is our global mission programme -- a practical expression of our conviction that every child, in every nation, matters to God.

Through Enable, we currently support communities and children in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and India. We do this through child sponsorship, educational funding, feeding programmes, and community development projects. It is hands-on, it is relational, and we have seen God do remarkable things through it.

Zimbabwe -- Mashava

In Mashava, Zimbabwe, we are partnered with Mashville School -- an educational institution that LWCC members have been involved in establishing. We sponsor the schooling of children on a monthly basis, and our support also includes feeding programmes and vocational training initiatives such as chicken rearing and bakery projects. These are not just handouts -- they are tools that build sustainable livelihoods and restore dignity.

Zambia -- Lusaka

In Lusaka, Zambia, we support Destiny School and are also walking alongside the development of Spring of Life, a newer educational venture. Through child sponsorship we aim to cover every aspect of a child's educational journey -- meals, fees, and uniforms. As our partnership grows, our support extends to the development of teachers and essential school infrastructure.

India -- Tender Heart Foundation

In India, we have a long-standing and deeply valued relationship with the Tender Heart Foundation. Over the years we have sponsored children and orphans, enabling them to access education that would otherwise be beyond reach. We are committed to this partnership and to widening our embrace as God provides.
