The Office has been active in training churches and organisations on how to run these courses. And of late support has been given to the UDACIZA churches. Under the UDACIZA 180 people have recently completed the Alpha course. Of these people 37 people received Christ for the first time in their lives with 50 recommitting their lives to Christ. We managed to distribute new Shona bibles and 46 people confessed that it is their first time to read a bible in their lives as most of them grew up in a background where they did not believe in the bible. We are now in the process of training more leaders for the new courses under the UDACIZA for the 3rd term.
