Dear Friends,  

We continue to give God glory for His faithfulness and allowing us to live in the same time as His Apostle and Servant Prof Ezekiel H. Guti. What an honor to have witnessed some of the miracles and being able to see him or hear him in the 100 years of life God have him. As we were taught, we will continue to live out those teachings as true disciples of Ezekiel Guti who was a true disciple of Jesus Christ.

Powerful testimonies were shared on how the God of Ezekiel is doing wonders in the lives of the saints. Bible study was led by Overseer Rudolf on the topic of Water baptism. The Overseer was mightily used by God to minister on the Kingdom of God emphasising the fear of God. Among 37 people who attended 17 were attending for the first time and they all decided to be part of FIFMI family. Two people were also water baptised and one child was dedicated to the Lord. Afterwards, the church broke bread together, fellowshipping with each other.

All glory and praise to the God of our Father Professor Ezekiel Guti for what He is doing in Nevis. We are so grateful for new souls.

BOTSWANA

North East Province – Under the leadership of Overseers T and A Zhou we joined the rest of ZAOGA FIF family as we hosted a power packed Family convention held from the 17th to the 20th of August 2023. We were privileged to have Overseers S and I Machuwaire as our guest speakers who impacted us through progressive family teachings from the word of God. They were grounding families in parenting subjects, love in the family, deliverance as a family, giving and managing finances as a family. We also had workshops of all age groups addressing issues that affect each and every member in the family and ways to resolve matters in the home. To top it all up, we had a Holy Spirit session. Families gave testimonies and presented items as a unit. Truly FAMB brought so much healing, peace and joy to families in our province. We had an average attendance of 75 adults and 43 children. Early before the Sunday main service a leadership seminar was held. We thank the God of our father Archbishop E.H Guti for using Overseers S & I Machuwaire to impact families in our province.

TEACHING:  PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

An excerpt from the History book

“..This mighty work of God which He has started and greatly anointed, with signs and wonders, it must continue with the anointing followed by miracles. No one should be put into leadership without the baptism in the Holy Spirit and the speaking in tongues. The true Holy Spirit bears fruit as in Galatians 5:22.…..” God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you,

Apostle Drs Steve & La-Verne Simukai
