SWAAF Malawi Day - St Andrews, Birchgrove, Cardiff - Sabbath 27 February 2010 Malawi Adventists from all over the UK converged on the South Wales African Adventist Fellowship on Sabbath, 27 February to worship and fellowship with the African congregation in Cardiff. The day which was set aside as Malawi Day of Fellowship aimed at bringing back other Malawi Adventist and non-Adventist Christians in Cardiff who for some reason are not in church. The ladies took a significant role in the day – a role that is no longer contested in the Adventist Church. Women in Adventist churches play leading roles in extending philanthropic activities and community services to people in need. Formally known as the Dorcas Society, Adventist Women's Societies are remembered for their physical, spiritual and mutual benefit initiatives. Women's Ministries have shown over the years that they can make a significant difference in the lives of less privileged people in society. As the Christian community stands, Malawi Adventist women can play formidable roles in caring for their own and the communities in which they belong. With the support of Malawian men, the congregation raised two hundred and forty pounds towards an evangelistic campaign in Ntchisi District of Central Malawi. Various singing groups added joy to the day. For the many first time visitors to the celebration, it was a Sabbath day worth remembering as they expressed their desire to visit again. Pastor Thangalimodzi's interactive and poignant sermon on "Pregnant Question" brought the congregation to reflect on how Christians perceive others vis-à-vis Jesus' own question who do people say I am? The afternoon sermonnette by Pastor Newton Kawiliza placed the earlier sermon into perspective and cautioned that meeting the Saviour of our world, Jesus Christ, is dependent on what people do today as the world stands on the shores of eternity.
