  • Zimbabwe LAND of BEAUTY, PEOPLE of FAITH
    PIONEERS IN EVERY LAND Zimbabwe LAND OF BEAUTY, PEOPLE OF FAITH Zimbabwe has a thriving community of Latter-day Saints. By David Dickson Church Magazines The Beauty of Zimbabwe onsidered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwean border is neither the widest nor the deepest waterfall Cin the world—but many claim it to be the largest in sheer volume of water. More than a mile (1.6 km) wide, cascades of water plummet 350 feet (108 m) to crash on rocks below. The roaring falls kick up such a heavy spray that you can’t even see the base of the falls during the wet season. Victoria Falls is only one of many stunningly beautiful sights in Zimbabwe. Located in southeast Africa, Zimbabwe (formerly Southern Rhodesia) lures trav­ elers from all over the world to experience its national parks, wildlife, beauty, and culture. Whether you want to travel with a wildlife safari or try your hand at white­water rafting down the thundering Zambezi River, Zimbabwe has a lot to offer—including a thriving community of Latter­day Saints. The Church in Zimbabwe There are more than 23,000 members of the Church living in Zimbabwe. Member­ ship has grown swiftly in the last 35 years. Prior to 1980 for example, there were just over 1,000 members. The prophetic declaration issued by President Spencer W. Kimball (1895–1985) on June 8, 1978, that “all worthy male members of the Church may be ordained to the priesthood without regard for race or color” (Official Declaration 2) had a posi­ LEFT: PHOTOGRAPHS © CORBIS AND COURTESY OF JEAN NEWBOLD LEFT: tive impact on the growth of the Church in Zimbabwe.

  • A Reflection from an African Convert on Official Declaration 2
    A Reflection from an African Convert on Official Declaration 2 Khumbulani D. Mdletshe he Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will commemorate Tin June 2018 the fortieth anniversary of the coming forth of Offi- cial Declaration 2. This anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on the legacy of the priesthood ban and the 1978 revelation. The revelation came through the prophet of the Lord, Spencer W. Kimball, and has had critics and supporters. As a convert to the Church and especially as a black African convert, I have experienced a long journey but a worthwhile one. This essay will focus on this personal journey and how I came to understand the background history of the ban and the impact of this revelation for the Church, especially for those of African descent, and how the revelation has increased my belief in modern-day prophets. My Early Life in KwaMashu, South Africa I was born under the dark cloud of apartheid hanging over South Africa.1 It was 1964, when political leaders including Nelson Mandela had been 1. Apartheid was a political, economic, and social system in South Africa during the years when the country was under the white minority rule from 1948 to 1994. Racial discrimination has been a part of how some human beings treat others, but within the South African context it took a different form in 1948, mainly because it was strict and more systematic. South Africans were divided by their race (blacks, coloureds [mixed race], Indians, and whites), and these various races were forced to live apart from each other.
