Mbereshi[1] (also spelled and pronounced Mbeleshi) is a village in the Luapula Province of Zambia, named after the Mbereshi River on its north side.
It is the site of a large mission founded in 1900 by the London Missionary Society.
The Girls school and Hospital are now Grant Aided institutions run by The United Church of Zambia.
Mbereshi contains a number of examples of mission buildings, including a large church which is now part of the United Church of Zambia.
