Bishop V. Mhaka received a warm welcome at Vundembe Primary School in Chivi, one of the educational institutions established by the Eastern Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Zimbabwe (ELCZ).
Vundembe Primary is among the few schools that were planted by the Diocese as part of the Church’s long-standing commitment to community development through education.
Historically, the ELCZ handed over the administration of its primary schools to rural district councils in the 1960s. However, following Zimbabwe’s independence, the Church renewed its involvement in the education sector, embarking on the establishment of new primary and secondary schools.
Church leaders say the expansion of educational institutions is part of the ELCZ’s broader diaconal ministry — a mission focused on serving communities through social, spiritual, and developmental initiatives.
The visit by Bishop Mhaka underscored the Church’s continued dedication to strengthening access to quality education, particularly in rural areas.
