Africa Day & Community Garden!


Dear friends,
Greetings to you from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. We would like to let you know that tomorrow, which is Africa day, our Church will have sports day by the school playground to promote unity between parents and children. So please pray that we will have fun with our children in Church and that the games that we will play will enable parents and children to bond together . This is really a new thing in the community for its normally taboo for a parent to play with his/her child but we have realized that this has enlarged the gap between parents and children. We so much believe that united families have got power to transform communities, so tomorrow is our  first day of transforming people`s worldview through sport. 
We are going to launch our Bible kids clubs after the games and we want to do this with the parents so that they will be able to allow their children to be part of these clubs. Please pray with us as we sow the seed of the word of God into the lives of these children.

We are also glad to let you know that as a Church we established a nutrition garden at Mthombothemba primary school with the aim of providing school students with fresh veggies to enhance their participation in school activities and this week we managed to harvest our first fruits from this garden . This is part of our mission to preach Christ through practical ways and we believe that this garden will go a long way in reducing malnutrition ,hunger and starvation at the school and eventually the children will know that there is God who loves them. The desire of our hearts is to see all children in this community grow in the knowledge of Christ . Thank you friends for all your prayers and support. Please find here-in below the pictures of  children ,teachers  and some members of our congregation harvesting the veggies.
Blessings,
Gideon
