Dear Friends,

HAPPY 66th ANNIVERSARY ZAOGA FIFMI!

FIF RSA NATIONAL WOMAN TRANSFORM CONFERENCE 2026

The FIF RSA held the National Woman Transform Conference 2026 from 6-9 August, a remarkable and transformative conference. The conference was powerful and successful despite the country’s challenging environment. The God of our Father truly came through for us.

We were greatly blessed by the presence of our mom, Snr. Archbishop Prof. Eunor Guti, who joined us virtually while our mother, Apostle Nyasha Miriam Guti, the International Director, Dr. La-Verne Simukai, and Mother Africa, Rev. Leticia Nyambo, were in the house. We were also graced by other international speakers, Pastor Kulecha Chipadza and local speakers including Pastor Tammy De Finn (RSA). Dr La-Verne came with her powerful team from Australia, Botswana, the United Kingdom, and Zimbabwe.

The teachings addressed the total person and covered various topics, including prayer, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, deliverance, marriage, the importance of education, dealing with in-laws, raising a child in today’s generation, mental health, and many other relevant topics. Attendance grew tremendously, from 650 women on the opening day to an amazing 1,600 on the final day. 20 people were filled with the Holy Spirit for the first time, while 64 were refilled and refreshed by the Spirit. All the pastors present received impartation, and joy filled the house. 3 people received Jesus Christ as their Lord and personal Saviour. What a wonderful move of God.

The Word was ministered by Deacon Andre on prayer and the Word of God, including his testimony from the prayer mountain. The sick were prayed for, and there was great deliverance, and the service ended with prayer for the people. We thank you for your continual prayers for Guyana.

MADAGASCAR

We thank God for a fruitful strategic soul-winning outreach in Antananarivo. On Saturday, 8 August, a team of 10 trained soul winners led by Overseer Phillip Chipfakanya went to Ambodifasina for one-on-one preaching, targeting 5 souls in 2 hours.

By God’s grace, 27 people received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. On Sunday, the new Ambodifasina Assembly was packed with 39 people, and 11 more visitors received Jesus Christ. To God be the glory! The assembly is promising more growth. Please pray for instruments for the new assemblies in Madagascar, and that we establish Forward in Faith in every city.

RUSSIA

We give glory to God for the church in Russia. On Sunday, Apostle Zenus and Overseer Dr. Cathy dove deep into Scripture, teaching on the power of tithing and charging believers to remain in the Kingdom of God: “Fear not and sin not.” We logged 25 gadgets for the service, and we welcomed a new member from the Philippines.

Meanwhile in Moscow, Deacon Timothy shared a message titled “Looking unto Jesus,” followed by sweet fellowship over dinner; attendance was 31. In St. Petersburg, Sister Nikita taught on the unconditional love of God; attendance was 16. We also thank God for believers in UFA who continue Bible study every Sunday with an average attendance of 8. Thank you for your prayers and support.

MAURITIUS

Forward in Faith Mauritius is deeply grateful to the God of Ezekiel as we received Overseers Petros and Cynthia Gresof. The church has been greatly strengthened through powerful teachings. Overseer Petros has been teaching and grounding the church through an ongoing Discipleship series, “Bridging the Gap,” encouraging the church to connect with the teachings, doctrine, and practices handed down by our father, in an effort to reduce the differences that separate the older and younger generation. We are continually being reminded to follow the spiritual landmarks that have shaped Forward in Faith. Overseer Cynthia taught powerfully on deliverance, bringing much-needed understanding, freedom, and strengthening to the church. We appreciate your prayers; give all the glory to the God of Ezekiel.

MALAYSIA

We appreciate the faithfulness of the God of Ezekiel in our nation. The midweek services are being attended. On Sunday 02 August, we had a blessed service. Pastor Rue led a very interactive bible study on Justification by faith from the book Sunday morning bible lectures, and Elder Tapiwa delivered a profound teaching on vision which edified the church. From Monday 03 to Friday 07 August, we had a week of prayer which was sealed with an all-night prayer that had a high attendance, dubbed “Night of His presence,” with our resident Pastors as the speakers; truly, we enjoyed being in His presence. Then on Sunday 09 August we had a phenomenal big Sunday at our national auditorium, which was coded “Jersey on, faith Up”.

There was great excitement in the camp as all members were putting on FIFMI Malaysia soccer jerseys. Choirs from all ministries participated, and all top-performing Assemblies received trophies. Pastor Shepherd preached powerfully on the topic “It’s never too late” from the theme The Kingdom of God. Many people were prayed for, and two people rededicated their lives to Jesus Christ. We had holy communion, then food and fellowship after the service. We really appreciate your prayers and support.

MOZAMBIQUE

We continue to thank the God of our father, Professor Ezekiel Guti, for the great wonders He has been doing in Mozambique, as we continue celebrating his legacy.

In the area of evangelism, this week we testify a continuation of the Soul Winning outreach activities carried out on the streets of Maputo City, in the cities of Nacala and Nampula, in Tete Province, and at the Xinavane Centre. As a result of this evangelistic work, more than 125 people gave their lives to Jesus Christ. The legacy continues.

ZIMBABWE

The assemblies also held midweek services and Friday prayer bands, where many experienced miracles, deliverance, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

As FIFCAHSM, we were greatly honored by the presence of our Father, Archbishop Joseph Joe Guti, who encouraged delegates to do the right thing and maintain order: no stealing, no drugs, so they reflect Christ wherever they are.

We also thank Overseer Zvizvai and the speakers, Pastor Zimbili, Pastor Dope, Evangelist Hapanamambo, Apostle Mazvidza, Ashley Mbongeni, Elder Mutasa, and Chaplain Matsongoni, for powerful teachings on salvation, child-parent relationships, entrepreneurship, drugs and substance abuse, communication, career guidance, and social media.

Many other students were also delivered from the spirit of rebellion and various addictions, including taking drugs and substances, as well as pornography. We thank the God of our father for giving us a breakthrough.

ZENGEZA PROVINCE – Nazareth Region
We would like to give all the glory and honor to the God of our Father, who enabled us to hold a powerful all-night prayer on the 7th of August 2026 under the leadership of National Evangelist Alice Mavhunga, dubbed “Panobudika night of worship, healing & deliverance”. More than 600 people from various cities, towns, and nations attended the event.

The service commenced with pre-testimonies as people shared what the Lord had done in their lives through the National Evangelist. She delivered a powerful message based on Luke 10:19–20 and Matthew 16:16, emphasizing the authority and power given to believers to overcome life’s challenges. This was followed by powerful sessions of worship, healing, and deliverance. Glory be to God for the 3 people who gave their lives to Christ.

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

Do things now; have a desire to learn something to do the work of God. Maybe you don’t have the call of God, but can you see the needs of the people in the church and do what is needed in the church of God. When you help others, God is going to give you gifts. Here l am: before l had the gift of healing l had compassion for the sick, l felt sorry for the sick people, but when God saw my desire, God gave me the gift. The blind began to see; the crippled began to walk. l didn’t have the gift to pray for people to have children when I heard the relatives despise the barren woman. Now l pray for them. l had compassion; God gave me the gift. Maybe you say you don’t have the call of God. Just go and do the work of God, then God will give you gifts……God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you.
