Earlier in 2024, Bro Aaron Nengomazha led a trip to Southeast Zimbabwe, particularly in the province of Manicaland, where the need for Bibles and Message Books is immense and growing. Local ministers had long been requesting Bibles and Message Books for their congregations, but due to high costs, obtaining these materials had been very challenging.
Working with a dedicated group of ministers, Bro Aaron and his team compiled a list of over 200 groups across various provinces in Zimbabwe that were in need of these resources. Thanks to the Vision Books team and the churches and believers that supported this project, Bro Aaron and his team were able to distribute $5,000 worth of Bibles. These Bibles were distributed in Manicaland and even crossed the border into Mozambique, where the need for God's Word is just as great.
In addition to the Bibles, small solar-powered speakers were provided, making it easier for people to hear and study the Word in areas without electricity. The distribution network has been strengthened through the use of WhatsApp groups, enabling communication and collaboration across provinces.
The response from the communities in Zimbabwe was overwhelmingly positive. Many villagers, unable to afford the $10 cost of a Bible from the Bible Society, were overjoyed to receive their own copy. These Bibles became the most treasured gifts among the other materials provided.
Though the need for Bibles and Message Books continues, Bro Aaron and the Vision Books team are committed to doing what they can, expanding their efforts to reach more regions in Zimbabwe and beyond. Thank you and God bless to all those who supported this project.
