ZCC pledges commitment to national development THE Zion Christian Church (ZCC) has pledged its commitment to continue working with Government in promoting peace, unity, and national development.
Colour, rhythm, and spiritual devotion defined this year’s Easter Conference at Mbungo Estates in Masvingo Province, where hundreds of thousands of congregants from the Zion Christian Church gathered in celebration.
The vibrant ZCC dances and songs set the tone for a spiritually uplifting gathering attended by President Dr Emmerson Mnangagwa and other senior government officials.
Delivering his sermon, the leader of the ZCC, Bishop Nehemiah Mutendi, emphasised the role of the church in nation building, acknowledging the work that the government is doing towards improving livelihoods.
“Mathew 26 verse 41 says watch and pray, and as Churches we are watching and praying. We have witnessed developments implemented by the government across the country, and we are grateful. As Churches, we do not compete with you, we do not withdraw from national matters though we anger you, we affirm what builds, we remain alert to what weakens it, and we remind leadership that authority is never owned, it is entrusted, and the people have done it,” Bishop Mutendi said.
Bishop Mutendi’s sentiments were also shared by the Zimbabwe Indigenous Inter-denominational Council of Churches (ZICC) .
“As Bishops and Churches, we are appreciative of the work that you are doing to transform our country. We continue to pray for you, and we feel that you are doing a great job for our nation,” Chairperson Zimbabwe Indigenous Inter-denominational Council of Churches, Bishop Andrew Wutaunashe noted.
Masvingo Minister of State for Provincial Affairs and Devolution Honourable Ezra Chadzamira chronicled development programmes implemented in Masvingo, recognising the ZCC’s contribution especially in agriculture, education and health sectors.
“This occasion continues to strengthen the bond between our government and the religious communities, as they form the fabric of our great nation, Zimbabwe. In Masvingo, we recognise the work that ZCC is doing in contributing towards food security in our province, building schools and health facilities.”
“Our relationship with this Church is very deep, and they participate in all our development programmes. We are looking forward to continue nurturing this relationship,” Minister of State for National Security, Honourable Lovemore Matuke said.
The massive turnout at the ZCC Easter Conference reflects the church’s continued growth and influence, while also highlighting its strengthening relationship with the government in promoting unity, community development, and socio-economic transformation.

Best Business Credit Cards for Small Business Owners
The best business credit cards can help small business owners manage expenses, earn rewards, and separate business spending from personal spending. If you use your card carefully, it can also improve cash flow and make bookkeeping easier.
Business credit cards are especially useful for owners who travel, buy inventory, pay for ads, or make regular operating purchases. Instead of using a personal card, a business card keeps transactions organized and may come with better tools for tracking spending. That can save time at tax season and make financial reporting easier.
When choosing a card, look at rewards structure, annual fees, interest rates, and extra perks. Some cards offer cashback, while others reward travel, office spending, or advertising purchases. The best option depends on where your business spends the most.
You should also review the card’s credit requirements. Some cards are easier to qualify for than others, and newer businesses may need to start with simpler options before moving up to premium cards. A business card should support your operations without creating unnecessary debt.
If you plan to carry a balance, pay close attention to the APR. A rewards card is only valuable if the interest does not outweigh the benefits. For many owners, the smartest strategy is to pay the balance in full whenever possible and use the rewards as a bonus.
Some business cards also include tools for employee cards, expense tracking, purchase protection, and travel insurance. These extras may be useful if your team makes frequent purchases or if your business requires travel.
The best business credit card is the one that matches your spending habits, keeps your finances organized, and gives you useful rewards without hidden costs.
