Orphans at Namwianga

The Namwianga Mission was established in 1920 in Kalomo, Zambia under the Churches of Christ with the purpose of teaching the Bible and promoting Christianity.

On the mission site there are six elementary schools, four junior high schools, and three high schools. Namwianga also contains the George Benson Christian College, which trains secondary teachers in the areas of Math-Religious Education or English-Religious Education, and many graduates go on to plant churches around Zambia.

The Namiwianga Mission is also involved in orphan care. The orphanages include Eric's House, for older children and teenagers; Kelly's House, for toddlers; Eleanor's House, for newborns and babies; and the newly-constructed Marjorie's House, which will house HIV/AIDS children.

Many years the church had supported Roy Merritt and his work as a fulltime missionary at Namwianga Mission located in Zambia, Africa.[1]
