Dear Brethren, 

Hope this report finds you all in good health. We want to thank the Lord for enabling us to sail through the month of May 2022. The effects of global inflation on food and drought are still with us. We thank God that we are managing through the providence of God.

CHURCH PLANNING SESSION

On the 20th of May 2022 our small congregation went into a planning session for the whole day at one of our member’s home. We also did this last year. We really need this time so that we can reflect on success and challenges we might be facing as the church as we plan for the future. We will never stop planning despite the scarcity of resources available

VISITORS

We had three visitors during the month of May 2022. The first visitor we had was a couple from Mhembwe Church of Christ a congregation we once worked with for the past six years. Then the last visitor was the chairman of community Mr. Mafetuka also a member of the Lord, s church.                                     

DOOR TO DOOR KNOCKING

Our evangelism work is mainly on door to door knocking. In many houses we knocked the door, the welcome was good. We even saw some inviting their neighbors and friends to come and listen to our Bible teaching lessons. Some promised to revisit us to come to our worship services.

DEATH AND MEMORIAL SERVICE

On the 13th of May 2022 I was invited to go and preach at the funeral of one of the couple in our community who were being murdered in a cold blood by six robbers after pounced in their house. It is so said that this couple were one of our prospects whom we were studying with, God’s work. They left behind three young children. May you please pray for the kids Tim, Grace, and Tracy.

BIBLE STUDIES

We meet for our Friday Bible studies throughout the entire months. The turn out was bit low due to cold weather. We had been studying the book of Philippians 4 and we are now through.

BACKYARD GARDEN

We had resumed our backyard gardening.  Am happy to that say we are busy making some raised beds. We are expecting to plant cabbages, carrots, tomatoes, and vegetables.

CHURCH ATTENDANCE

Our attendance for the whole of May 2022 averaged from 15-20. I preached throughout the entire month. Our giving was US $35, 00. Our giving is still low because most of our members do not go for work.

PRAYER REQUESTS

  • Pray for our country. Next year there is going to be Presidential elections. In many parts of the country, we are already seeing campaigns being carried out. We are praying for peace.  
  • Pray for my children.
  • Pray for my family we are having accommodation problems. We are in need of our own permanent accommodations.  
  • Pray also for my wife. She is sick and her health is deteriorating.     

Lastly, I would like to thank you brethren for your unwavering support and prayers for the mission work here in Zimbabwe. May God bless you all. 

In Christ.
