ABSTRACT STRATEGIC CHURCH PLANTING IN THE CENTRAL ZIMBABWE CONFERENCE: TOWARDS A PARADIGM SHIFT IN CHURCH GROWTH by Nkosiyabo Zvandasara Adviser: Douglas Kilcher ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: STRATEGIC CHURCH PLANTING IN THE CENTRAL ZIMBABWE CONFERENCE: TOWARDS A PARADIGM SHIFT IN CHURCH GROWTH Name of researcher: Nkosiyabo Zvandasara Name and degree of faculty adviser: Douglas Kilcher, D .Min. Date completed: July 1998 Problem This dissertation focuses on church planting in the Central Zimbabwe Conference. While impressive results have been achieved in evangelizing the lower classes of the society, there has been meager success in reaching the upper classes of the Black community as well as the White, the Indian, and the Colored minorities. A strategic church-planting approach to church growth hopes to not only target the least promising population segments served by the Central Zimbabwe Conference, but also to increase the effectiveness of the other church methods currently being employed to reach the more responsive classes in that conference.

  • Ndhlovu, Reward Register (1927–2000)
    Image not found or type unknown Ndhlovu, Reward Register (1927–2000) PAMINUS MACHAMIRE Paminus Machamire, D.Min. (Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan) is currently the vice president of the Southern Africa-Indian Ocean Division. He began his ministry as a district pastor in Zimbabwe where he also served as a departmental director at field and union levels. Later, he served as president of East Zimbabwe Field before becoming the Zambezi Union executive secretary, and later union president in Zimbabwe and Botswana. He published a book,The Power of Forgiveness, with the Africa Publishing House. The history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Zimbabwe would be incomplete if it did not include the contribution made by Reward Register Ndhlovu, or R.R., as he was affectionately called. Reward Register Ndhlovu was a prominent Zimbabwean Seventh-day Adventist pastor, evangelist, and church administrator. His Early Life (1927–1948) Reward Register Ndhlovu was born on April 27, 1927, at Ncema Village, Essexvale (now called Esigodini), in Matabeleland, about 42 kilometers (26 miles) south of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. He was the thirdborn son of Register Ndhlovu. His name and those of his eight siblings (seven boys and two girls) share a common theme— the second coming of Christ. From the firstborn to the ninth, the names were as follows:1 “Signs,” of the coming of Christ. “Promise,” of the Master’s soon return. “Reward,” that Jesus gives to every saint. “Message,” to be preached to the whole world before Jesus comes. “Waiting,” for Jesus to come. “Grace,” a girl— reminds one that the grace of God saves sinners.

AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY IN ZIMBABWE, 1935-1986 R. WHITLOW Department of Geography, University of Zimbabwe ONE OF THE earliest references to the potential of aerial photography in surveying in this country is attributed to C. F. Webb who, in 1912, noted that by means of aeroplanes 'huge tracts of country could be surveyed and rivers accurately mapped in one tenth of the time and not half the expense involved at present'.1 The first aerial survey in South Central Africa was in July 1925, when a reconnaissance study was carried out on the Okavango Delta.2 During 1926 the British-based Aircraft Operating Company (AOC) undertook a contract for extensive aerial surveys in the then Northern Rhodesia3 and, to assist in its 'Africa Expedition', it built a base at Bulawayo in 1928 but this only operated until 1931.4 In that year it seems that test aerial surveys were done over Bulawayo and Gwelo by a Captain R. E. Castigan, but no formalized mapping resulted from these experimental flights. It was not until 1934 that the Government of Southern Rhodesia decided to allocate annually a sum of £3 000 to allow for aerial survey of an equivalent number of square miles of terrain, and from 1935 until the outbreak of war in 1939 a contract was put out to tender.

  • Solusi University Aerial View
    Solusi University aerial view. Photo courtesy of Christopher Thebe. Solusi University CHRISTOPHER N. THEBE Christopher N. Thebe, D.Ed. (University of South Africa) currently serves as a district pastor in Bulawayo, West Zimbabwe Conference. As a trained educator and ordained pastor, Thebe has served the Seventh-day Adventist Church as a teacher, pastor, and lecturer and administrator at Solusi University, Zimbabwe. He has published several articles and one book, A Formative Assessment Model for Self-Regulated Learning (LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing, 2019). He is married to Rhoda with four children and five grandchildren. Solusi University is a chartered institution of higher learning owned and operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Zimbabwe. Developments that Led to the Establishment of the School Solusi University is situated 30 miles (50 km.) southwest of Bulawayo in Zimbabwe, near the original headquarters of Chief Soluswe, from whom the university took its name. It was originally known as the Matabele Mission, but it was later renamed Solusi Mission.1 The history of Solusi University goes back to the late nineteenth century. Prior to the coming of the pioneer missionaries in 1894, there was no trace of Adventist work in Matabeleland or the entire geographical area of then Southern Rhodesia, which included Mashonaland and the surrounding regions. Hence, Solusi may rightly be called “the mother and almoner of them all”2 (referring to missions to Africa), being the first Adventist foreign mission to be established among the native peoples of Africa.3 Its history is dotted with various achievements, amidst its many setbacks and unforeseen circumstances.

As the Head of the church, Christ is authoritatively calling upon everyone who claims to believe in Him to follow His example of self-denial and self-sacrifice in work- ing for the conversion of those whom Satan and his vast army are exerting every power to destroy. God’s people are called upon to rally without delay under the bloodstained banner of Christ Jesus. Unceasingly they are to continue their warfare against the enemy, press- ing the battle even to the gates. And everyone who is added to the ranks by conversion is to be assigned his post of duty. Everyone should be willing to be or to do anything in this warfare. When church members put forth earnest efforts to advance the message, they will live in the joy of the Lord and will meet with success.
