Dream Factory faces the year

2014 with great expectations .

Welcome to our first newslet-

ter for 2014. We hope you will

enjoy reading it.

Without a doubt, this year will

be busy and great! All of our

programs, including Women

Empowerment Program, IT

short courses, Adopt-a-Club

project and Volunteer Pro-

gram, will continue with great

speed.

Our other area of concentra-

tion will be the consolidation

of the overall work and pro-

grams in Dream Factory. You

may be aware that in the

course of last year, School

Mission joined Dream Facto-

ry.

Owing to this new develop-

ment, we moved to a new

facility, which today is our

new headquarter. This new

land has endless amount of

potential for development of

our programs and activities.

Over time, it is our dream to

see many people empowered

at this beautiful place.

Just to mention a few of our

dreams for this land: Our own

Empowerment to the women in 2014 by Griselia Msoni

Empowerment Program is a success, we

salute you and ask for abundant blessings

for you from God.

17th January 2014 saw a second group of

20 women recruited for this year’s

Women Empowerment Program. This

group will run from 7th February 2014 to

7th February 2015.

The recruitment was followed by an in-

tensive workshop wherein Dream Factory

administered loans of K500 to each

woman in attendance. It was a great and

wonderful day for all of us, where women

celebrated and sang nice songs and

danced.

Imagine how good and wonderful it

is to bring back the smile on the

face of a gloomy person! We are

happy to see that the work of God is

being done in Nkwazi compound of

Ndola through Dream Factory.

It is a breakthrough for you and me

considering how much help we are

giving to the vulnerab-

le through microloans.

Other people may feel it is

something small until they

see how benefiting it is to

the beneficiaries. It is as a

seed planted and germina-

ting to give out more.

My hope is that we could

have more people come and

see how their contributions

are making a difference.

have been instrumental in

ensuring that the Women

Stanley says, "My passion is teaching; I

am a firm believer that the major diffe-

rence between success and failure in life

is the content of the mind. Therefore, a

deliberate renewal and development of

the mind is vitally critical to all mankind.

That is why I am passionate about chan-

The month of December 2013 saw us mo-

ving from Petauke Road to new offices at

5 Kansenshi Small Holdings. On this big

piece of land is a house, which is being

used for offices and to accommodate vo-

lunteers. The rest of the land has been

used for farming purposes and has huge

potential for other projects including our

current vision, which is to construct a

football pitch, a clubhouse, and an insaka

(a veranda-like room with a fancy that-

ched roof), and a volunteer house.

Ideally the football pitch will be put

to use by our ‘Adopt- a- Club’ de-

partment for football training pur-

poses and tournaments. It will also

be used as a camping ground for

both locals and volunteer teams

from abroad. The clubhouse will

hold changing rooms and

bathrooms to facilitate the ongoing

activities within our premises.

The insaka will be used for staff pro-

grams, discipleship courses and any

other outdoor meetings, whereas the

volunteer guesthouse will be used to ac-

commodate even more volunteers, there-

by allowing for more office space in the

current building.

With the consolidation program we just

embarked on, we hope to have a success-

ful 2014.

God gave me a vision to build a

discipleship centre to minister to

students in schools. At this centre,

students would come for confe-

rences and prayers. I decided to

be trained as a pastor at Kaniki

Bible College in Ndola, Zambia.

There I met Elevin who is my wife

today.

One of the lecturers, John Peder-

sen, was director for School Missi-

on for Christ, an interdenominati-

onal organisation that ministered

to students in schools, colleges

and the universities.

I learnt later that School Mission had a

vision to build discipleship centres for

students, a vision similar to what I had.

On completing my 2 year training at Kani-

ki Bible College, I joined School Mission

and I have since that time worked in

schools, colleges and the University of

Zambia as a School Mission pastor.

After my marriage to Elevin, she joined

me in Lusaka where we together have

been serving God in schools. Right now,

we are ministering in 15 schools. As a

couple, we have ministered to a number

of teachers in many ways including or-

ganising marriage seminars.

We have been speaking to our disciples

on relationship, courtship and marriage.

Currently we do speak on matters of mar-

riage at a Lusaka radio station every

Thursday.

When we are in schools, we minister to

students when they gather at the assemb-

ly, in classrooms, on clubs day and on

special arrangements. We also organise

seminars and conferences where we ga-

ther up to 500 to 800 students.

I am a secondary school teacher by pro-

fession. When I was a young Christian

training to become a teacher I heard that

Muslims had sponsored many young men

to train as teachers. The intention was that

these young men should be used to influ-

ence their students into Islam. At that

particular time the Lord spoke to me that,

I would be a teacher to lead young pe-

ople (students) to the Lord. Teaching

would give me a platform to serve God.

From that day to this hour, I like ministe-

ring to students.

After completing my teaching course, I

was sent by the ministry of education to a

boarding school where I served as a sci-

ence teacher. In that school, I led hund-

reds of students to the Lord. There was a

great revival and the school hall was al-

ways full of students during times of pray-

er. There were unusual manifestations of

the power of God in healings and delive-

rance.
