We the Victory World Outreach Baptist Ministries in Malawi, our Aim is to carry the great commission of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19-20) The Great Commission is to preach to the lost souls, Baptize and disciple them to be faithful to the work of God.
Since the ministry was started early in 2000, we have seen the hand of God being upon us and that many wonderful things were happen through the guidance of the sweet Holy Spirit of God. Amen.
1. Thousands and thousands of lost Souls were saved, and many of them were called to preach.
2. Over 427 Churches were started, which every Sunday Service is now holding almost 70,000 members.
3. Four Bible Colleges, and we are now constructing one.
4. Orphanage which is holding over 100 Orphans and now we are constructing one near by Good Samaritan Children's Home at Mapanga and Ntcheu.
5. Jesus Film where we have reached many many lost souls.
6. Youth Program (to reach new believers in our churches).
And even though we are lacking many things, we need bibles so much, that we can train more to our people, because most of our memebers in our churches are below poverty (they can not even afford to eat twice a day) but they are hungry for the word of God to study. We are not only just working with the people in town but also more in Villages where most preachers don't have a desire or a burden to reach the people in Villages. This is my prayer that the Holy Spirit of God will touch your heart and do something for the glory of God. Right now we are so busy teaching the word of God in different areas with some studies and out of 100 people may be 10 will have bibles and each bible is $7.00. We thank Bro. Chuck Miller and the Madam, Bro. Mark Logan for what they have done buying some bibles. May God Bless You. Bro. Henry Chatata, President Good Samaritan Baptist Bible College

Traveling to Malawi
We have been able to glimpse into a day with a visitor through Victoria's journal and see it can be challenging and so rewarding. There is alot to do or a little; Spending time with the children, doing schoolwork, singing, bible lessons, soul winning, giving hugs, etc. Each day is full of blessings. The children love to be a part of their people coming to see the Lord and accepting Jesus Christ as their saviour.
Isaiah 66 says "For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him, that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word."
It has been said the Malawi people receive ONE tract and ONE person comes to know Jesus. Others have been to Malawi and handed out thousands of tracts and later in the villages the people want to know more of what they received in town. The Lord is rejoicing with all the people coming to know him. What a blessing to be a part of this work.

More from Victoria. Does this get you excited!
May 23, 2008
Today I woke up early in the morning and did my devotions. My body is trying to get use to the time. I forgot to mention last night, but I have two girls that are staying with me. Their names are Maricia and Betty. The girls went to school early this morning. Woke up about 7am and the girls were already gone. I made some breakfast, but I invited a lady over for breakfast. We had eggs and salsa, but to this lady it meant a lot just the fact that she ate with me. Also today we started our Soul Winning class I had about thirty girls in the class. I taught them some bus songs. They really enjoyed themselves.

Well, my body is trying to get use to the time here. Since when it’s morning here it is probably about midnight in the states. Today we went to a village to start our bus route we had a lot fun. We had about forty people going out for bus visitation that would include the thirty teenage girls. It was their first time going out on visitation. I think we will a have a good crowd of people tomorrow. I was very exhausted due to the fact that I have not gone on a bus route for 5 hours and not having a break in between. Not only that, but I was walking up and down bushes. The different ways we went were very rough. I had a very hard time going up and down those ridges. The translator I had thought that I was getting very tired, but I explained to him that I had asthma and my lungs need air or my medication. I probably did not mention earlier, but I have not received my suitcases yet because they got lost. Meaning my medication is in there.
I don’t often think about the things that I have or do because I’m already used to it. When we got back from soul winning I made some tuna melts for the girls that are staying with me. They had never eaten melts before. I started thinking to myself I have everything in America and I complain for the things that I don’t have. Yet, these girls have nothing compared to me. I should be content with the things that the Lord has given me. I write today this: Mericia was ironing a few of my shirts that I had brought in my carry on bags. I realized that the two girls were just looking at my shirts. I went on to say, “You can have any of my button shirts.” They were some what surprised!!! I was glad I offered them shirts.

Today was my first Sunday here in church. I went on the bus route and the Lord blessed abundantly. I thought that we were going to have a couple riders. We had 114 people come off the bus for the first time. We had to do two pick ups because we could not fit all the people in a 27 passenger bus. In our first load we had 62 passengers, and the second load we had 52 riders. The church house was filled. There were a lot of people saved. Our promotion today was soap Sunday.
This country is hungry for the Gospel!!! The harvest is plenteous, but the laborers are few.

Victoria's first day in Malawi
Victoria is a visitor from Fresno. She has been on other mission trips but this was her first to Malawi.
May 22, 2008
Due to some complications I arrived in Blantyre, Malawi today. Bro. Gentry and Bro. Chuck picked me up from the airport took me over to Bro. Gentry’s home. We ate breakfast and fellowship together. What I enjoyed the most is spending some quality time with Bro. Gentry and what he is doing here in the ministry. I praise the Lord for allowing me to be here. I’m looking forward to the days to come to leave this place, and say that I’ve done all that I can here.
Bro Gentry has asked me to spend a lot of time with the teen girls and their mentor in regards to spiritual things. I feel very privileged, but yet so incapable of the task. He also wants me to have a couple soul winning classes with the teenage girls so that this Sunday we can run our first bus route. Lord please help me to be what I ought to be while I’m here in Malawi.
As soon as I arrived in the orphanage. There was a lot of mixed emotions you may think why???? Well, when I got myself situated in the round house. The orphans were in school still, but they were all sitting by my house just looking at me, it was sort of sweet. I’m not trying to boast myself up, but where ever I went the kids wanted to be with me. So, I went ahead and sat down around them and started to ask them their names. There were so many names that I could not remember all of their names, but my own; the reason why is because there is a girl that has my name. I asked them if they wanted to play a quick game. They were very excited to see that the Nsungu or the American girl wanted to play with them. I ended up playing with them steal the beacon. It was pretty hard to explain to 100+ kids, but we surely had a good time. By the time we were done it was probably about 3pm. I did not know that the kids were in school when I had arrived earlier, but they had canceled school due to the fact that they where very excited to play with me.
On the other hand it is about 6pm here in Malawi and I’m very tired!!! It has been a very long day.

Introducing Flossy Kutuma
Soche Village New Life Baptist Church
Pastor Enoch, Sheila Miller, Flossy, her neighbor and 2 of Enoch and Flossy's children
Dr. Gently,
I thank Lord for calling me to this good work and its only which has been recommended in the Holy Bible above all.
Due to your support to me we have seen what God has done upon me. I walked and soul winning to several souls (1,092 people) but those who received Jesus Christ were 997 people (for 3 months) May - July 2008.
Oh Dr. Gently remember!! that we were so many people who trained this and you teached in college. But the rest are still patience,but to me it was my need and if I am not doing this good work I do not feel good because I know I have something in heaven.
My request to you Dr. Gently is that Please! still remember me through prayers that I should reach to many people abundantly than previous years.
Lastly, I shall never forget for informing me Brother Charles and his family and finance which I bought (4 bibles) (note: the money was given for food) and I know this has happened because you introduced me to him. May God Bless you and your entire family and also Charles's and his family.
Now! I want to give you the calculation which I have reached from May-July 2008. I reached 1,092 people but among this (997 people were saved). Ooh I know its a good work.
The Lord should be glorified and I'll be praying for you and your family through this work is so to be accomplished unless Jesus will come back, Dr. Gently, try to encourage Charles and his family, May God Bless Him too.
Last of all, Dr. Gardiner Gently don't forget me, when the mobiles starts. Yours Soul Winner Flossy Kutuma
