Jesus Film Impact

April 18, 2024

Together with the Media Team, we embarked on this journey to witness firsthand how Pastor Katemanyoka, our esteemed Jesus Film Partner, is making a profound impact on lives through this strategy. 

Pastor Katemanyoka's journey with the Jesus Film began in 2010, and since then, he has planted an impressive total of five churches through the utilization of the Jesus Film. Starting in Tengwe, the first church gave birth to six pastors who have continued to work alongside him to this day. It is awe-inspiring to witness how the Jesus Film has not only transformed Pastor Manyika's life but also equipped him with the tools to influence and touch the lives of countless others. 

One remarkable aspect of Pastor Katemanyoka's work is the conversion of individuals from Muslim backgrounds. These individuals have undergone a profound transformation and are now serving as committed pastors, leading others to Christ. The impact of their testimony is immeasurable, as it showcases the power of the Gospel to break barriers and bring about lasting change. 

In addition to the church in Tengwe, Pastor Katemanyoka has successfully planted churches in Karoi Town, Mahute (which is being sistered by Moy Assembly), and Dambanzara. More recently, in 2024, he planted another church in Lancaster Farm, the very place where he resides. 

The manifestation of the Holy Spirit in this location has been extraordinary, with powerful testimonies of deliverance, healing, and life transformation echoing throughout the community. 

With a heart full of zeal and a vision to spread the Gospel even further, Pastor Katemanyoka has expressed his desire to expand his efforts beyond Karoi. 

He envisions reaching out to other places and cities such as Chinhoyi and Harare, planting churches through the Jesus Film. However, limited equipment poses a challenge to their mission. Pastor Katemanyoka has humbly requested additional Jesus Film equipment to facilitate more crusades and outreach events, allowing him and his pastors to reach even more souls for Christ. 

The impact of Pastor Kate Katemanyoka's work, fueled by the Jesus Film, is undeniable. Lives are being transformed, communities are being touched, and the Kingdom of God is expanding through his faithful obedience. We are privileged to witness and support such a powerful ministry, and we remain committed to providing the necessary resources and assistance to help Pastor Manyika achieve his vision.
