Meet Noel Billy Banda, the Designer behind the Catholic Archdiocese of Lilongwe Tiyende Limodzi Endowment Fund Logo.

Noel's Description

I am a Catholic youth from Maula Parish, Lilongwe, with a passion for using creativity to support the Church and its mission. My inspiration comes from my Catholic faith, the Church community, and the role of design in communicating messages of faith, hope, unity and service.

With 10 years of experience in graphic design, I have been inspired to create designs for the Church, including logos, posters, banners, publications and other communication materials.

What Inspires Me

My inspiration comes from seeing how the Church brings people together, serves communities and gives hope to those in need. I am especially inspired by the beauty of our Catholic identity, Christian symbols, Scripture, community and service.

For me, designing for the Church is more than a profession. It is an opportunity to use my God-given creative talent to serve, communicate and contribute to the mission of the Church.

My Design Philosophy

I believe that good design is more than making something look beautiful—it must communicate a message and have meaning.

My philosophy is to create designs that are simple, meaningful, memorable and purposeful, while ensuring that every element contributes to the story being communicated.

I aim to create designs that connect with people, inspire them and communicate the values behind the organisation or mission they represent.

Auxiliary Bishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of Lilongwe, His Lordship Vincent Mwakhwawa, has commended the Malawi national women’s football team, the Scorchers, for bringing Malawians together regardless of their religious, political or social backgrounds.

Bishop Mwakhwawa commended the scorchers on Wednesday when he joined hundreds of Malawians at Kamuzu International Airport in Lilongwe to welcome the team following its outstanding performance at the just-ended Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

Bishop Mwakhwawa described the occasion as an important moment of national unity, saying sports, and football in particular, have the power to bring people together.

The Bishop also commended the players for their hard work and determination, saying their achievements offer an important lesson to citizens about the value of working diligently, even when their efforts may go unnoticed.

He urged the public to emulate the Scorchers spirit by working hard in different professions and contribute to the development of the country.

His Lordship also encouraged the public to continue supporting the team, describing the Scorchers’ success as an achievement that belongs to the entire nation.

The Scorchers finished second in the competition, held in Morocco, on their first appearance at the tournament.
