Called to fix broken vehicles so that broken hearts may be fixed

My graduation gift… a set of pliers

2008 – 2010 I went to a Vocational Training School in Chimoio where I studied Metal Work. After my graduation in 2011, I came to the mission to do some practical work related to mechanics and fortunately I had an opportunity be trained in Vocational Automotive Mechanic at ASAM with Rick Cogbill and other short term volunteers. In 2012 God opened the door for me to go to a Christian Professional Training Center (Tariro) for two years where I got a Certificate in Automotive Mechanics. When I graduated I heard God’s voice calling me to return to the mission through II Timothy 2:1-3 “Timothy my dear son, be strong through the grace that God gave to you in Christ Jesus. You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy People who will be able to pass them on to others. Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus...”

Our emergency and support vehicle getting a service

three months and that is still continuing on this building as the mezzanine level, storage rooms shelving and front door manufacturing have progressed well. In fact I really thank God for His protection, wisdom and for sending His humble, skilled and experienced people from Canada. Rick Gogbil and Bob Denesiuk were a huge blessing during their time here. Other local staff of the mission, Tomé Toalha, Gabriel and Felix have also been used wonderfully by God in the progress on this project.

It’s not about building, or skills, or vehicles…It’s about the souls that will be touched, experience the GOD’S LOVE and be saved through this service.
