Unity in Action: Shincheonji Zambia Church Leads Massive Clean-Up Drive at Ng'ombe Market

 Cleanliness is the first step toward a healthy community. Recently, in the heart of Lusaka, a powerful movement of unity took place. The Shincheonji Zambia Church (Bartholomew Tribe) organized a large-scale environmental clean-up at Ng’ombe Market in Mandevu, proving that when faith meets community service, real change happens.

A Collaborative Effort for Public Health

The rainy season in Zambia often brings challenges like clogged drains and waste accumulation, which can lead to waterborne diseases. To combat this, approximately 100 volunteers—including Shincheonji members, Zion Christian Mission Center students, and local market traders—gathered for "Clean-Up Day."

This wasn't just a church event; it was a full community collaboration. Local traders joined in with their wheelbarrows, and 30 medical staff members from the Ng’ombe Clinic participated to improve the sanitary conditions of the area.


Full Support from the Mandevu City Council

The impact of Shincheonji’s volunteerism has reached the halls of local government. The Mandevu City Council provided official support by deploying trucks to transport the collected waste.

On behalf of Councilor Luka Phiri, representative Pumulo Nyambe delivered an opening speech, stating:

"Your environmental cleaning activities are greatly contributing to making our community clean and healthy. The City Council fully supports you, and we hope you continue this unwavering spirit of service."

More Than Just Cleaning: Building Bonds

For over 2 kilometers, the streets of Mandevu Market were filled with volunteers working side-by-side.

  • Addressing Resource Gaps: The head of environmental health at Ng'ombe Clinic noted that while they had struggled with a lack of manpower, this joint activity provided the necessary boost to tackle the area's hygiene issues.

  • Preventing Disease: By clearing blocked drainage systems and removing debris, the volunteers are playing a crucial role in preventing outbreaks of cholera and typhoid.

A Global Example of Love

The Shincheonji Zambia Church continues to be a beacon of hope in Southern Africa. By taking the lead in practical service, they are showing that the "Word" they study is put into "Action" for the benefit of all. As they plan for regular clean-ups, the bond between the church and the Zambian community only grows stronger.

    The media should focus on fair reporting grounded in truth rather than sensational narratives.
