UCCZ Ordains First Visually Impaired Pastor
The United Church of Christ in Zimbabwe (UCCZ) has ordained its first visually impaired pastor.
Reverend Caiphas Matinhe (61), was ordained by the church’s president, Reverend John Matiza, on Sunday last week.
Rev Matinhe urged church members to take ownership of the church and to serve sacrificially. He said:
This year’s theme is that of ownership. Strive to be the owner of your church and be a team player. We like people who serve sacrificially.
What Rev Matinhe has done is a great work of sacrifice. It is fitting that Rev Godfery Dhundu and Rev Tennyson Mucheri recommended Caiphas Matinhe to be ordained as a reverend.
