To plant Christ-centered churches and bring Gospel transformation to unreached areas.
To plant Christ-centered churches and bring Gospel transformation to unreached areas.
At a glance
Purpose Life plants simple, Christ-centred churches in villages that have never had a gospel witness. Teams share the good news, disciple new believers and gather them into churches led by people from their own community.
Many begin with a single household — like John’s family, whose home is now a house church where neighbours gather to worship.
What this includes
Why it matters
In rural Zambia and northern Mozambique, many villages are hours from the nearest congregation. Traditional beliefs, poverty and distance keep the gospel from families who have never heard it clearly.
When a church begins in a village it brings more than Sunday worship — it brings prayer, care for the vulnerable and a community that helps families stand.
How we do it

Questions
We go where there is little or no gospel witness — often after an invitation from a family or community leader. Prayer walking and conversations help us find people ready to hear.
Local believers. We train leaders from within the village from the very beginning, so the church does not depend on outsiders.
No. Most begin in a home or under a tree. Some later build simple structures; many continue as healthy house churches.
Through follow-up visits, leader training, Bibles and connection with other churches in the network.
Yes. A gift towards a church plant funds outreach, Bibles, leader training and follow-up through the church’s first year.
