Empowerment begins when people are equipped with skills that can transform their lives.

Last week, the ELCZ Gender Justice team journeyed to Mberengwa to empower Gender Champions with practical detergent-making skills, creating opportunities for income generation, self-reliance, and stronger communities.

Our journey began with the women’s group at Ivhukuvanhu and concluded in Chomusenda, where community Gender Champions gathered with enthusiasm to learn, grow, and inspire change.

Every skill learned is a step towards economic independence. Every empowered individual becomes a catalyst for positive change in their family and community.

Together, we are building communities where knowledge creates opportunity, empowerment restores dignity, and hope leads to lasting transformation. 💙✨

Today, the ELCZ Gender Justice Desk was honored by a special visit from ELCA partners to one of its livelihood projects in Ivhukuvanhu, involving a group of 13women. The visit created a valuable opportunity to bring together gender champions, allowing them to engage with the guests and appreciate the impact of the partnership.

The delegation was led by Rev. Dr. E. Moyo, Regional Representative of ELCA, alongside Bishop K. Sibanda, Bishop V. Mhaka, the General Secretary of ELCZ, and the Health Coordinator.

It was truly a day to remember.

Today, ELCZ Gender Justice, as part of the Gender and Faith Network Zimbabwe, joined in the commemoration of International Women’s Day, reflecting on the vital role of faith in promoting women’s participation.

In her theological reflections, Rev. Jabedu highlighted Deborah as a powerful example of women in leadership. She encouraged women to embrace their positions of influence and never underestimate themselves.

We also extend our appreciation to all the parishes that responded to the call for women to attend this celebration. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn, share, and be inspired by women in the faith space.

Purple Sunday in the ELCZ 💜

Today several congregations across the ELCZ joined the world in observing International Women’s Day by wearing purple a symbol of justice, dignity and honour for women and girls.p

Even though purple is already the colour of the women’s uniform in our church, the spirit of the day was still beautifully embraced through worship, Bible studies and fellowship.

Together we celebrate the value, strength and God given purpose of every woman and girl.
