Church Planter (Lozi People), Western Province, Zambia

Sean and his family are going with Shannon's family to preach and teach the Gospel and establish biblical churches among the Lozi people.  The Lozi are an isolated people group living along the Zambezi River in Western Province, Zambia.

We met Dominic in 2004, on our first trip to the village of Ilwendo along the banks of Zambezi River. At that time and in that specific area of Zambia, there was no faithful witness of the True Gospel. Yet, here was this man. Early on we could see there was something different about this man. We could see the hand of God on his life. There was a real need for someone to come alongside him with spiritual encouragement and theological training.

In recent days, Dominic has been meeting faithfully for Bible study with roughly twenty people in a nearby satellite village three days a week: Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. At the same time, Dom must keep up with his own farm work at home. There are fourteen children under his care in his village - he and his wife Concelia have seven of their own. The remaining children are orphans or children of his sister. Dom is also helping to improve the lives of those around him. He formed a business 'cooperative' with seven other young men in the area. They are raising additional crops for market and have started digging a pond in order to raise a type of fish called Brim.
