Our 4 thematic areas
Our key activities
1. Evangelism
We equip students and graduates with skills to fulfil the great commission. We train and model students to one-on-one evangelism.
2. Bible Studies
We equip students and graduates with skills to study the Bible, interpret it and apply it in their lives. Ultimately we aim at producing a gospel-shaped student. We train and model students to one-on-one bible reading.
3. Services
Altogether we do services where students meet to pray, fellowship, sing and hear bible talk from the Bible. These happen every week.
4. Equip
We equip students and graduates to become a new generation of servant leaders of biblical integrity for Zimbabwe as they come to faith in Christ and discover their potential within God’s plans and purposes for their lives. We train both CU Committees, SRCs in Colleges and young-man and women who want to join gospel work full-time.
