== Early life & Career ==
Born Antje Saakje Terpstra in Friesland in the Netherlands, the eldest daughter of a family of five children, she was trained as a psychiatric nurse in the Netherlands before moving to England in 1965 where she married David William Robson in March 1966. She and her husband moved to South Africa the same year and they had four children before they divorced in 1982.〔('Annie Terpstra, mem in Malawi' - "Annie Terpstra was born in Friesland during the war, the eldest daughter of a family of five children. Annie goes to work at Sun and Shield, a psychiatric hospital in Amersfoort. She leaves for England as an au pair. She meets a man and after three months she marries him. They had four children, but marriage is not a success from day one." ), ''Evangelische Omroep, (EO)'', Tuesday February 12, 2008.〕 In 1980 she started Rhema Alexandra, an organisation aimed at helping to alleviate poverty in what was a volatile township, in the Johannesburg area. In 1993 she married Lewis Chikhwaza, a Malawian pastor and moved to Bvumbwe near Blantyre where she continued to help the poor and started a nursery school. In 1996 she sustained a brutal attack on her life which made headlines in the Malawian media. Malawi News Online reported: "The Dutch woman married to Pastor Lewis Chikhwaza of the Bible Faith Ministries of Blantyre sustained multiple injuries when a horde of angry villagers descended on her executing instant justice."〔()"Malawi News Online, 19 October 1996"〕 Though she nearly died, Chikhwaza survived the attack and went back to South Africa to recuperate but returned to Malawi 18 months later. Standing with an HIV/AIDS-infected baby, she felt the call to start an orphanage and she and Lewis founded Kondandani Children's Village in 1998.〔('Annie Terpstra, mem in Malawi' - "Annie's life is no longer safe. She is surrounded by fifty wild men and women with knives and axes, she thinks that her end has come. After a long recovery period in Johannesburg she comes back stronger than ever. As she stands with a baby with AIDS in her arms, she knows that she has a great role to play." ), ''Evangelische Omroep, (EO)'', Tuesday February 12, 2008.〕
Annie Chikhwaza's life story is captured in the biography (Mother of Malawi ) – published worldwide by (Lion Hudson ).
