Special Podcast: The Taguma’s Work in Zimbabwe

We were blessed Sunday evening to hear from Shelton and Rebecca Taguma from Zimbabwe. As they shared about the work they are doing to support grassroots organizations and churches, it became evident that God was using them to love the people He loves.

How beautiful on the mountains
   are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
   who bring good tidings,
   who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
   “Your God reigns!”
(Isaiah 52:7)

It is also interesting to note that the Taguma’s message Sunday evening dovetailed perfectly with what Pastor Josh shared that morning. God is definitely on the move!
