Billy & Rebecca Banda
Malawi, Africa
For more than 15 years, Billy Banda has been faithfully serving in Malawi, Africa. Malawi, a landlocked country in southeastern Africa, is an extremely poor country where more than two-thirds of the population lives in abject poverty. Where everyday survival is a struggle, Billy is bringing hope and practical relief – being a tangible expression of Christ’s love. Through his seminary training, Billy has been equipping pastors and planting churches among some of the hardest-to-reach people groups of Malawi, the Yaos, who are predominantly Muslim, and the Chewas, who are an indigenous people group. Billy also serves as an itinerate evangelist, preaching God’s redeeming love to many who live in remote villages that would otherwise have no access to Christian teaching.
