The Mabvuku Evangelical Christian Brethren Assembly (CMML) is an active part of the Christian Brethren movement in Zimbabwe. Located in the capital city of Harare, our Sunday Breaking of Bread gathering typically includes about fifty people.
Our primary fellowship programs include Gospel Ministry, Women’s Ministry, Youth Ministry, Sunday School Ministry, and the Wednesday Bible Study (currently focused on the Book of Genesis).
We maintain strong fellowship with other CMML Brethren Assemblies across Zimbabwe through twice-yearly “Big Sunday Services.” These large gatherings, which can draw over two hundred people, include Breaking of Bread and Gospel Ministry.
Furthermore, our men participate in monthly Men’s Breakfast meetings organized by Bethany Chapel in Harare, where they focus on Biblical Manhood Principles.
Succession Plan
As part of our commitment to developing future Biblical Church Leaders, we have implemented a structured succession plan:
- Youth and young adults are strongly encouraged to enroll with Emmaus Worldwide Ministries for a deeper understanding of the Word of God.
- Once a month, the youth are given the opportunity to lead the Sunday Services, providing them with practical, hands-on training for future assembly leadership roles.
Community Outreach and Future Goals
The Mabvuku Assembly runs several social programs designed to support our community:
● Food Bank: Believers donate groceries and cash, which are distributed to the needy, including widows, orphans, and single mothers.
● Table Banking: Believers contribute cash as seed capital to help others start their own small businesses.
Prayer points:
Join us in prayer that the Lord will provide for the security of our church premises as the main gate entrance into the church premises is damaged.
The assembly has established an Education Fund for the benefit of the less privileged children in the assembly. Join us in asking the Lord to lead brothers and sisters worldwide to express their passion in helping fellow Brethren in need.
If you are led by the Spirit of our Lord, do pray for us or be involved in a practical manner with the prayer points above.
Our assembly is facing significant financial strain, exacerbated by local economic hardships, the lingering effects of COVID-19, and the impact of erratic rainfall due to climate change.
A critical need for the security of our church premises is the repair and replacement of our perimeter fencing and main gate. The current gate and fencing are damaged, and we urgently seek to install a new gate and a more durable perimeter wall.
