What we checked

  • Not a duplicate: no similarly named church is listed with us

  • Contact email reviewed (gmail.com, common for small churches)
  • No website or social page was provided
  • Independent web search performed: see the findings on the right

What we found

We searched for this congregation under its own name together with Harare and with Zimbabwe, and found no listing, page or mention that matches a church of this name in Harare. The results we did get all point to unrelated congregations abroad that happen to share the name, including a non-denominational church in Sarasota, Florida and a church started about 25 years ago by Pastor Jack Nester and now led by co-pastors Dave and Rose Castleman (fobfamily.com, fobchurch.com, a Facebook page for the Sarasota church). Searches also returned only general Zimbabwean church bodies such as the Zimbabwe Council of Churches, an ecumenical organisation founded in 1964 (Wikipedia), with no register entry for this name. We found no directory, map, news or denominational listing for it, and no social media page tied to Harare or to the Gmail contact address given. The findings are summarized here for space; the full research was weighed in the review.

Search conclusion: no evidence found. An independent web search is part of every review; an online page alone does not prove a congregation exists.
On our request, the church itself supplied additional evidence for this review. At the church's request it is kept private and not shown, but it was weighed in the verdict.

However, when we asked directly, the church supplied a photograph of its building and congregation and explained in its own words that it began in 2024, gathers about 150 people, and cannot yet afford social media or equipment, which is a c
