the church relies on you (Government) for protection, you can rely on the
praying of the church for guidance in the work that you do and you can be
assured we shall continue to pray unceasingly for peace in our beloved nation,
Zimbabwe.
“The Diocese of Epiphany will endeavour to teach the truth
of the Lord Jesus Christ revealed in his word.
“We will support the Government’s efforts to fight
gender-based violence, corruption and drug abuse.”
