He thanked the church for the invitation, observing the fellowship during such prayers is meaningful and important.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore Malawi became a nation with leaders, it\u2019s the church that was leading people since time immemorial and CCAP was a great part of it, so let us all rise and help each other to develop the Nation, let us hold hands in the development of Malawi because if we don\u2019t do it, no one will come and do it for us, let us uphold our pride and honor in uplifting this nation\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>At the function, the president assured Malawians that his government will work hard in making farm inputs under the Affordable Input Program (AIP) subsidy program available in good time so that farmers can have good harvest.<\/p>\n<p>He also pledged his government`s commitment to creating a conducive environment for the church to worship freely. In his speech, Nkhoma Synod Moderator, Reverend Phillip Kambulire said the church will support the president in his effort to develop the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that the president also wants this nation to develop, he wishes this nation well too but he cannot do everything by himself, he cannot go into people\u2019s homes to work for them, he cannot go to people\u2019s farms and farm for them. So, as individual members of the church, we need to work hard and bring success to our homes because this success will contribute to the nations development,\u201d said Kambulire.<\/p>\n<p>He said Nkhoma Synod will continue praying for the president and his government and encouraged everyone to stop complaining but to thank God all the times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
