2024 Highlights: Bulawayo

In January, with a beautiful celebration, we sent off of the oldest member of our church, Cecilia, who graduated into glory. She was 84.

We had a Kingdom kid, Masi baptised. And then Sindie who'd been invited by a friend who was studying the bible.

Kingdom Teachers Visit: We were honoured to have Gilbert Kimeng, a teacher in our movement, come for a weekend of teaching. He was accompanied by our own, Thabani Mashava, who was appointed the first teacher in our country Zimbabwe.

Sports Day: Our church family came together for a fun-filled sports day, joined by our brothers and sisters from the Gweru ministry.

Retreats: Our married couples, singles, and teens each had their own retreats, providing opportunities for spiritual growth, fellowship, and bonding.

Family Group Leaders' Retreat: Our family group leaders gathered for a leadership planning retreat, equipping themselves to serve our church family more effectively.

First Century Services: We had a successful "Bring Your Neighbor Day" as part of our First Century Services, reaching out to our community and sharing the love of Christ.

Evangelism and Prayer: Throughout the year, we prioritized evangelism and prayer, seeking to deepen our relationship with God and share His love with others.

Women's Day in October: The sisters looked all pretty in pink, and they were dancing in beautiful gardens.

Rejoice with those who rejoice: The Church celebrated with Hazel and her family, as she graduated with a Masters in Science Degree.

We closed the year, praising God, at the baptism of a firedup young campus student, Praise.
