ACTIVATE ZAMBIA

Activate Zambia began as a new outreach initiative for C3 Church in 2023. Pastor Seth presented the vision to the C3 Church congregation of being a church that has both a local and a global outreach. This vision and work is continuing in 2024 and involves an exciting partnership between C3 Church and Grace Pentecostal Church and Ministries in Zambia.  


Over 200 children attended Activate Zambia conference in 2023, and 250 youth attended the Activate Zambia business training and mentorship program. The people of Kapiri Mposhi are excited to see Activate Zambia run again in April, 2025! 


Thank you to everyone who has prayed, supported and given financially to this work in Africa. To learn more about the partnership between C3 Church NE PDX and the churches and pastors in Zambia, click the link below.
