Chinhoyi Festival: A Powerful Beginning

Impact
Highlights

What God did in Chinhoyi through the Love Zimbabwe Festival was truly remarkable.
As the launch point for a nationwide Gospel campaign, this effort brought churches together in extraordinary unity in Chinhoyi and across the Mashonaland West Province and reached over 228,000 people through in-person events, radio, and digital outreach. We praise God for 25,705 documented decisions for Christ, 410 recommitments, and the involvement of 2,276 churches across Zimbabwe.
From school outreaches and evangelism training to dynamic festival moments with BMX stunts, dance crews, and powerful preaching, the Gospel was shared with clarity, compassion, and creativity. Behind the scenes, more than 2,400 leaders were equipped, and 77 evangelists from 12 nations served alongside hundreds of local volunteers—mobilized through our partner, African Enterprise.
Most importantly, the Church in Zimbabwe stood united. Denominations across the spectrum came together in response to Jesus’ prayer in John 17:21—“That they may all be one.”
This is just the beginning. We will continue with upcoming campaigns across Zimbabwe—including Gweru, Bulawayo, Harare, and a mission to unreached Binga.Thank you for praying! The harvest is ready—and Zimbabwe is responding.
This visible [Church] unity became a powerful witness to the Gospel itself, reminding us that when the Church is united in Christ, the world takes notice—and lives are changed.

We shared the Good News through these strategies and more!
