Zein Tembo – Malawi

Regional Director

Senzeni “Zein” took a road trip across Malawi just after high school and found himself at a gathering of young people who had just accepted Jesus into their lives. Zein wanted to learn more about their faith, so he bought a Bible and started reading it alone in his room. This began a journey of faith, which was confirmed at a youth conference where he affirmed his faith. Soon afterward, Zein discovered Young Life and started going to club. His love for the Lord grew, and in 2009, he began Young Life leadership training. Zein attended university under a Developing Global Leaders scholarship where he studied information technology. Only one percent of the population in Malawi enroll in a university, but Zein’s determination allowed him to persevere to graduation. Zein is now a regional director in Blantyre, Malawi.
