SEPTEMBER 2026

Dear Friends,

HAPPY 66th ANNIVERSARY ZAOGA FIFMI!

BRAESIDE ANNUAL GIRLS CONFERENCE 2026

The 2026 Annual Girls Conference was held from 3–6 September 2026 under the theme “Intentional Custodians: Keeping the Legacy,” hosted by our Girls Pastor, Carol Guti. The conference was a great success, with strong attendance and active participation, culminating in the Sunday service on 6 September, which drew a total of 133 attendees. We are grateful to God for His faithfulness and for the wonderful way He moved throughout the conference. We were blessed by teachings from Overseer Vimbai Manzviyi, Pastor Carol Guti, Deaconess Charity Mbizvo, and Deaconess Carol Mukwati, who ministered on the Kingdom of God, salvation, prayer, deliverance, faith, godly character, discipline, wisdom, self-respect, and integrity. The girls were also blessed through a faith clinic, emotional healing session, and a powerful Holy Spirit session.
A major highlight was the ministry of our mom, Archbishop Professor Eunor Guti, who joined us on Sunday and taught on the importance of having a teachable spirit. There was great excitement upon her arrival, which lifted the atmosphere as the girls warmly welcomed her. She encouraged the girls that if they desire to become like the godly women they admire, they must intentionally cultivate qualities such as prayer, holiness, consistency, discipline, hard work, serving God, and a willingness to learn and grow. She challenged them to be teachable even at home by overcoming laziness, helping where needed, respecting authority, and intentionally developing good character. Drawing from her own journey of serving God and working in the house of God, Mama Eunor encouraged the girls to serve faithfully without focusing only on what they would receive in return. During the final service, she also launched the Forward in Faith Girls School Project in Marondera, encouraging the girls to take ownership of the vision and contribute towards its fulfilment. The conference was a blessed and impactful gathering that challenged the girls to become intentional custodians of the legacy and invest in the next generation. To God be all the glory!

USA NATIONAL WOMEN’S CONFERENCE 2026

We give all the glory to the God of Ezekiel for a powerful 2026 USA National Women’s Conference held under the theme, “Daughters of the Legacy: Rooted, Grounded and Flourishing.” The conference was led by USA Go Quickly Chairlady Pastor Vee Tigere and her team, with the International Go Quickly Director, Dr. La-Verne Simukai, and a delegation of women from different parts of the world. Our mum, Snr Archbishop Prof Eunor Guti, reminded the women to have a disciplined and teachable spirit. Our mother, Apostle Nyasha Guti shared on the importance of submitting to one another. Reverend Leticia Nyambo ministered powerfully, encouraging women to become the “feedback” of the conference and to develop a deeper life of prayer.
The conference was marked by powerful preaching, worship, counselling, deliverance, prophetic ministry and the move of the Holy Ghost. Women gathered for 5:00 a.m. prayer throughout the conference, while ministers including Overseer Cecilia Zezani, Dr. Gwen Mawoko and Pastor Fiona Arthurs ministered on spiritual growth, emotional healing, restoration and practical Christian living. The Night of Elegance celebrated the women as daughters of the legacy, while the Holy Ghost Fire Night saw many women receive healing, deliverance and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Dr. La-Verne Simukai concluded with a strong charge for the women to jealously guard what God had deposited in them and remain rooted, grounded, and flourishing.
The conference recorded its highest in-person attendance on Saturday night of 275 women and 4 children, while its highest total attendance was on Sunday, September 6, 2026, with 290 people attending in person; 261 women, 29 children, and 105 joined online. The conference also recorded 4 people receiving Jesus and 6 receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Some of the testimonies and miracles:

• A woman who was limping received healing in her leg.
• Many ladies received emotional healing.
• The presence of God was powerfully manifested, and women received visions and prophecies.
• Many women were delivered from spiritual husbands, bad dreams, and nightmares
• Some were set free from the spirit of lying, jealousy, envy, hard hearts, anger, and rejection.
• Numerous received liberation from the spirit of poverty and bondage to credit
• Women were also delivered from the spirit of miscarriages.

Women were greatly encouraged by testimonies of God’s faithfulness in ministry, business, and other areas of life. No one wanted the conference to end because of so much joy and liberty that the women experienced. The daughters of the legacy were encouraged to go forth refreshed, joyful, and victorious, carrying their torches and taking the true seed of FIFMI wherever God sends them. We thank the God of our father for visiting and transforming the women of FIFMI USA in such a powerful and unforgettable way.

TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

We are so thankful to God our Father for the exceptional grace that continues to unfold in Trinidad and Tobago. We hosted our Miracle Night on 4 September, and surely, the legacy of miracles lives on. It was a powerful service marked by deliverance and healing from various ailments and conditions. About four people with different eyesight problems, including blurred vision, itching, and eye strain, were healed. A woman suffering from kidney and liver problems was confirmed healed, while another person was set free from chronic migraines. Several others were healed of diabetes and high blood pressure, and many more people with pressing needs were prayed for and received their miracles. One person also rededicated their life to Jesus.
Our midweek services continued as usual, with believers testifying of a deeper level of transformation and a notable increase in attendance. We remain grateful to God for His continued grace and mighty works among His people. We covet your continued prayers for lasting and far-reaching breakthroughs across our nation. Praise be to God.

GUYANA

We praise the God of Ezekiel for His goodness to us in Guyana. On Tuesday, the ladies gathered for a time of prayer. On Wednesday, we gathered online for Bible Study, and on Friday and Saturday, the ladies joined the USA Women’s Conference online. It was a refreshing time in the Spirit, filled with prayer and powerful teachings. On Sunday, after Bible Study and a powerful time of praise and worship, the message shared was “Life of Miracles.” Our Pastor emphasized that miracles happen when we have faith and believe that they will happen. The service concluded with prayers for the people. We thank you for your continued prayers and support for Guyana.

BOTSWANA – North West Province

The Maun Region congregation gathered for a blessed Sunday service on 6 September 2026, where the Word of God encouraged believers to deepen their relationship and fellowship with God through prayer and fasting. During the Bible Study, Elder Conrad Mazvidza taught on “The Finished Works of Jesus Christ,” reminding the congregation that through Jesus, believers have bold access to the Father, authority in His name, and the privilege of being children and heirs of God. The Main Word was delivered by Elder Olga Chigwaya on the theme “Fellowship with God Through Prayer and Fasting,” encouraging the church to develop deeper fellowship with God through prayer, fasting, and the Word.
The importance of unity and fellowship among believers was also emphasized, highlighting the fellowship of prayer, the Gospel, and the Body of Christ. The congregation was encouraged to strengthen their walk with God and move to another level of spiritual fellowship and intimacy with Him. As was aptly expressed, “Relationship is connection; fellowship is companionship.”

ZIMBABAWE

ZEGU Spiritual Revival Festival
We are grateful to the God of Ezekiel, our great Founding University Chancellor, for the uncommon vision of the Spiritual Revival Festival, which seeks to reinforce the development of the total person—not just paper graduates—while fulfilling the Great Commission of soul-winning through schools and universities. This semester, the festival took place from 31 August to 6 September 2026 under the leadership of our vibrant University Chaplains, Pastors T&S Konye. We sincerely appreciate our father, Archbishop Apostle Dr Joseph Joe Guti, for sending us a powerful delegation of speakers and evangelists, including Ev Madimutsa, Ev Moyana, Ev Kaguramamba, Ev Mashiri, Ev Gwenjere, Ev Makwanya, Ev Pabgaungana, Ev Mavhunga, and Ev Ruth Basa. The delegation did a sterling job through morning devotions, counselling, preaching, deliverance ministry, and prayer. Students and staff were richly blessed, uplifted, transformed, and revived. Separate sessions for the boys’ and girls’ ministries were also conducted to address specific needs. Of particular note was the intensive preaching of the Word of God from the first day to the last, covering areas including salvation, the Kingdom of God, deliverance, and the Holy Spirit.
We are grateful to God for the 52 people who gave their lives to Christ. 10 people were Water Baptised whilst 46 received the Holy Spirit. The average Attendance ranged from 400 to 500. We extend our special thanks to the Vice Chancellor and the Executive for their support. Above all, we sincerely appreciate our father and mother, Dr Joseph Joe Guti and Apostle Nyasha, as well as our mum, Prof E. Guti, for their prayers, guidance, and wisdom. May God continue to bless and strengthen them as they advance the Kingdom of God through ZEGU.

Harare North Platinum Province- Bethesda Wealthy International Christian Centre
With hearts overflowing with gratitude, we give all glory to the God of Ezekiel for the abundant grace He bestowed upon us during the official opening of ZAOGA Bethesda Wealthy International Christian Centre on 6 September 2026. In a remarkably short period, the Lord enabled us to complete and dedicate a magnificent, state-of-the-art sanctuary. This great achievement was made possible under the vibrant and godly leadership of our Provincial Overseers, Overseers Jethro and Joslin Ganyiwa, together with our Regional Pastors, Trust and Priscilla Mutiumwe. The celebrations were witnessed by over 500 delegates and were graciously officiated by our Senior Bishop, Bishop N. K. Guti, with Bishop Maswerera and Amai also in attendance.
The power of God was mightily manifested on the day as Evangelist Tafirei Mutizwa from the UAE ministered during this remarkable event. Six people gave their lives to Christ, eight people were delivered from different evil spirits, and many others were healed of various sicknesses and afflictions. We sincerely acknowledge and appreciate Evangelist Tafirei Mutizwa from the UAE, together with the 13 pastors who came to stand with us and celebrate this significant milestone. The completion of this project in such a short time, coupled with the great move of God we witnessed, is clear evidence that the legacy continues. The God of our father is still building, still saving, still delivering, and still healing. To God be all the glory!

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

Fear of God By Archbishop Prof E H Guti, 1997, Harare:

If ever there is an elder or a pastor who worships God and mixes with charms at the same time, they will not prosper. All those people should move away from that quickly. If they don’t want to stop it, let them leave the church. This is the church of God. It is not the church of Baba Guti; it is the church of God. It is the church of Jesus Christ. Ezekiel Guti is just a servant of Jesus Christ only, but the church belongs to Jesus Christ. Don’t play with the Church of God; you will enter into problems, problems that are even worse than death. Don’t play with the church of God; don’t play with the things of God. Fear God, fear God, fear God. Don’t worship God lying deliberately; fear God. Temptations are there that want to make you fall in sin, but if you escape them and don’t sin, you are holy…..God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you.
