Africa Children's Feeding Centers
In 2022, the Lord led us to a small but vibrant village just outside Harare, Zimbabwe. It was lunchtime, and the scene before us was unforgettable—about seventy-five children standing patiently in line, waiting for a warm plate of food. For most of them, this would be their only meal of the day. Their hunger was not just physical—it was a reflection of deep poverty, desperation, and a longing to be seen.
Yet, amidst the need, there was beauty. These children were being fed not only a hot meal but also the Bread of Life—God’s Word. Volunteers joyfully shared Bible stories, planting seeds of faith and hope.
To our surprise, the feeding program had only started a few weeks earlier, founded by a local pastor and his wife, both working full-time jobs and pouring their savings into this vision.
But after just two months, their funds were exhausted. The program shut down.
Then came devastating news.
In a heart-wrenching phone call, our friend and partner in ministry, John Mutandwa of Faith In Community Aiders, shared that several children had died after the feeding center closed. The grief in his voice was heavy. The burden on our hearts was immediate.
We knew we had to act.
Responding to God’s Call
We shared the need. We prayed. And God moved. A generous donor answered the call, enabling us to relaunch the feeding center. With a new gas stove and funds for food, the doors reopened.
On day one, fifty-two children came—hungry for food and for hope. Just one month later, we were serving 250 children daily, each one receiving a nutritious meal and the life-giving message of Jesus Christ.
Because of this simple act of obedience, children who once faced starvation are now alive, thriving, and learning about the Savior.
Thanks to the program, there are children who are alive today.
Multiplying the Mission
What started as one feeding site has grown into a movement of God. As of today, we operate four centers in:
- Glen View
- Mataure
- Churu Farm
- Chegutu
Together, they feed and minister to over 550 children every day.
And we're not stopping there.
God has opened doors for expansion into new areas including Bulawayo, Majengwa, and Matare. Our dream is bold—to establish feeding centers in every province of Zimbabwe, and one day, in other nations as well.
From Meals to Miracles
One of the most incredible testimonies comes from Churu Farm—an isolated region with no roads, no bathrooms, and no churches. It was a place forgotten by many… but not by God.
As children gathered daily for food and fellowship, something unexpected happened. Faith began to take root. Soon, there were enough believers to start a church. A local pastor was hired and moved into the community. A church now stands where there was once spiritual silence.
Praise God—what began as a feeding program has sparked a revival.
Hearts Are Turning to Christ
Children are not only being fed, but they are also memorizing Scripture, learning to pray, and growing in faith. Parents are noticing the changes in their children’s obedience and joy. Some have come to the centers just to witness the transformation—others have stayed to hear more.
Even government officials have taken notice and offered their full support. Lives are being saved. Souls are being won.
This is the power of the Gospel in action.
You Can Be Part of a Miracle
There is still much to do. Countless children remain hungry. Many have never heard the name of Jesus. We believe God is calling more of His people to join this mission.

Mataure
Churu Farm
Churu volunteers started at 8:00 a.m., setting fire. Children were seated at 12 p.m. We cooked sadza with vegetables mixed with peanut butter. Esther Mandala led the devotion; she did a fantastic job. Pastor Pfidze taught the children to obey their parents and to come to church in their numbers. We fed 55 girls and 45 boys, totaling 100 children. The children's ages ranged from 1 year to 15 years. We thank you for your support. May God bless you. 4-13-25
