The founding Lead Eldership of Lusaka Family Church, Arnold and Gisela Nel originates from South Africa. In 2002 they received the “Call of God” to “go to the nations” and in 2004 whilst in Zimbabwe, God spoke clearly to them to relocate to Zambia and plant a church that would have “Family Values, that would love and care for God’s People” They led LFC since June 2008 and were married for over 45 years till the passing on of Pastor Arnold to glory in 2024.
God has blessed them with a son and daughter who are both married and are entrepreneurs – their son, Brent and daughter in-law Genevieve (blessed with 3 daughters) live in Ballito and run their own water company called Kuvuka Water, whilst their daughter Lauren and son in-law Malcolm (Blessed with a son & daughter) own 3 Hair and Beauty Salons in Pietermaritzburg.
