Daniel Moyo named as Executive Director of MoH Malawi

Updated: Oct 30



Daniel Moyo has been appointed Executive Director of Ministry of Hope by the Malawi board of trustees after serving with the organization in various capacities for more than 22 years. He is one of the longest serving staff members of the ministry and will have oversight for all programs and personnel in Malawi. 

 

Daniel first volunteered with MoH in 2003 while a student at African Bible College in Lilongwe. After graduating with honors in 2006, he began working at MoH in managerial positions overseeing operations, the education program, donor relations, and a discipleship program that recruits volunteer students from African Bible College. He also earned a graduate degree in Leadership and Management from Leeds Metropolitan University.

"The most rewarding experience with MOH has been sharing my life story as a testimony in inspiring the orphans and needy children to have faith and hope in Christ who has good plans and a good future for them," said Daniel.

 

Those who have worked with Daniel for years praise his strong mix of managerial and interpersonal skills. “He has the humility to get on the floor and care for the babies at the crisis nursery, and he can relate to the children and students in the villages,” said Rex Hoffman, board chair of MoH in the U.S. “He also has the cross-cultural awareness to be an effective ambassador with the ministry’s international volunteers and supporters. We pray for continued blessings in his leadership of Ministry of Hope which touches thousands of children and community members in Malawi.”

 

“To we in the United States, Daniel ‘is’ Ministry of Hope,” said Paul Sigmund of Malawi Visions, a non-profit organization from Liberty Corner Presbyterian Church in New Jersey that partners with MoH. “Daniel is a critical partner of all we do.” As program coordinator for Malawi Visions, Daniel has been instrumental in the design and implementation of library/tech centers, solar power, drip irrigation, the Teen Life leadership program, finding reliable vendors and managing project expenditures for construction projects. “And not least of all, guiding and keeping us safe when we travel to Malawi,” said Sigmund.

 

Outside of MOH, Daniel serves as a deacon at his Central Church of Africa Presbyterian Church, and in leadership roles on its Youth, Finance, Welfare, Music, Stewardship, and Fundraising Committees. He also volunteers with the Samaritan’s Purse ministry and oversees the distribution of all gift boxes during its Operation Christmas Child program in Malawi.

 

Over the years Daniel said the most satisfying thing for him is getting to know the children at the MoH centers and seeing their lives transformed. "My heart is filled with joy seeing so many that my life has been a part of through spiritual development programs, growing and graduating from primary, secondary and college and becoming responsible citizens of their communities. I hope some day they will become donors of MoH in the same ways as they are ambassadors.
