President Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera, ever committed to uniting Malawians beyond political lines, spent his Sunday morning immersed in worship at Monkey Bay Assemblies of God in Mangochi. Flanked by First Lady Monica Chakwera and senior officials, including his Religious Affairs Advisor Rev. Brian Kamwendo, the President was warmly received by Resident Pastor Bishop Favour Chirwa—underscoring once again his consistent engagement with the faith community.
Since taking office in 2020, President Chakwera has made it a point to attend religious services across all corners of the country, reinforcing his belief that leadership requires both spiritual grounding and national outreach. Whether in urban cathedrals or rural sanctuaries, he has used the altar not for sermons alone—but to listen, connect, and reaffirm his commitment to every Malawian.
And while his presence was felt in Mangochi, his leadership extended across the waters to Likoma Island, where Minister of Homeland Security Ezekiel Peter Ching’oma represented him at the 30th anniversary celebration of St. Peter’s Anglican Cathedral. In his absence, the message remained clear—no region is too distant, no event too small.
As the September elections draw closer, moments like these quietly remind the nation of a leader who balances reflection with responsibility, presence with delegation—never missing a beat, whether in prayer or public duty.
