One of the men who has been helping to renovate the huts for the orphan care center is Mr. Mamvura from Shauro. Recently he shared his testimony with us:
“I had reached the position of Second Prophet in the Zionist Church in the area where I live. (The Zionist Church is a mixture of African Traditional Religion and the Old Testament.) I was always eager to “prophesy” for money. It was an easy way to make a living. But there was no knowledge behind my prophecies. It was all a lie. I also enjoyed drinking a lot and was not on good terms with some other people.
Then some people came to Shauro to preach the gospel. I realized that I had not been living my life in a good way so I repented. With great joy I was baptized with eleven of my family members. (He has 2 wives and 14 children.) God has helped me change my life. I don’t drink anymore and I am on good terms with others now.
God is teaching me how to take better care of my family. I spend a lot of time working with my family in the fields, but we never work on Sunday anymore. Now we got to church and worship God.”
