Catembe Mozambique-Mosquito Net Distribution



THERE MAY NEVER BE ANOTHER MALARIA VICTIM IN CATEMBE MOZAMBIQUE!

With the help of Lafayette Park UMC,5,697 Mosquito Nets have been delivered to Catembe Mozambique.  Lafayette Park UMC raised $20,000 to purchase 2000 mosquito nets as our 2011 Christmas fundraiser.  Our friends at the Missouri Conference's Mozambique Initiative help gather the remaining funds and with our partners at the Nothing but Net's program managed the distribution of 5,697 nets to the people of Catembe.

Lafayette Park UMC has a covenant relationship with the Catembe United Methodist Church.  We support them with our prayers and a small financial to provide a pastor. But in 2011 we went even further.  Living out our promise to be a church without walls.
