PRESENT MINISTRIES
The FMC Zambia has expanded to nine of the ten provinces of Zambia. These are considered beginning points from which FMC will further expand throughout each province. Several of the FM churches have educational programs for the children of their churches and community. Ministry centers are being developed, initially, in three strategic locations. These will provide a ministry base for the conferences being developed in the regions of these three centers: Lusaka, Ndola and Mansa.
ORIGINS
In 1997 a Malawian pastor preached in a Zambian village where he had friends. Several people were converted. A Free Methodist church was organized at this location in the northeast corner of the country near the borders of Malawi, Zambia and Tanzania. Another group was started in Ndola by a Rwandan refugee pastor. This second group has grown significantly and is under the supervision of the South Africa General Conference, which officially registered the FMC in Zambia. In 2023, Zambia became a General Conference.
