International Preachers Council of Churches (IPCC) has extended Easter love the less privileged and physically challenged in Caledonia, Goromonzi South Constituency, in form of food hampers, clothes, and branded calendars from the Department for Disabled and Vulnerable People under IPCC.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the community, Honourable Tinashe Chikonye, director of the Caledonia Peace Committee, expressed gratitude to the host of this cause, Prophetess Matsiya, and the IPCC leader, who was the guest of honor, Reverend Dr. David Phiri, for their generosity.
“As the whole community of Goromonzi South Constituency, we are so grateful to IPCC for this generosity. This act not only strengthens our relationship but also emboldens our spirit as a community.
“I hope that this will not end here, but you are also going to help some other communities. To us, Easter came with some extra joy, as you can see from our people who received the help.” Said Honorable Tinashe Chikonye.
Speaking to members of the media, Prophetess Dadirai Matsiya encouraged people to take part in social support that aligns with government efforts to address social welfare issues faced by many in various facets of the country.
“The act of helping societies is not designated to one person or group; it is the mandate of humanity directed from God. I urge various organizations to participate in initiatives like these. It is also crucial for individuals to take this initiative to fill gaps that government policies may not cover entirely.
“We cannot wait for others to solve our problems; we are the architects of our own destiny,” she said.
She also applauded those who stretched their hands in donating, including members of Divine Prayers International Ministry, for providing hospitality at such a historic event.
“Before I knew I was called to be a Prophetess, I used to dream of seeing myself serving lunch to orphans. When Rev. Phiri appointed me National Secretary for Disabled and Vulnerable Groups, it clicked in my heart, and I knew that God spoke to him because I never shared this with him before. Giving back to the community was my area of interest, and my dream truly has been fulfilled. I want to thank our President, Visionary, and founder of the IPCC, Rev. Dr. Phiri, and Amai, Apostle Season, and Amai for gracing this occasion, not forgetting the Secretary for Social Welfare in Caledonia who guided me in working with the community.”
The president of the organization, Reverend Dr. Phiri, closed the event with a message about the importance of community networks. He said that in times of need, when challenges seem insurmountable, it is the strength of these relationships—not only within the church but across the broader community—that helps to uplift spirits and embolden the collective will.
