Matsengarwodzi (DM) sought the insight of one of the original
members of Glory Ministries on how he can best describe the servant of God. Elder Verengai Zano (VZ) was the ministry’s
first armour bearer.
Below are the excerpts.
DM:
Can you please tell us about your early days in Glory Ministries. How did you
join the ministry?
VZ:
I
actually joined the ministry on 17 November, 2002. Apostle Sibiya had preached
at our school in Chitungwiza. Though we were few at first, our early days were
characterised by prayer.
DM:
What has really changed from the early days in Glory Ministries?
EZ:
We have experienced numerical growth. Back then, we were less than 10 – now we
are talking about thousands of members. We are now more professional compared
to the early days.
DM:
Can you describe Apostle Pride Sibiya as a person and a servant of God?
VZ:
He is a rare combination of two qualities – and you rarely find people with
those characteristics. He is a visionary and a missionary. He can project the
future. He is a realistic strategist in order to accomplish visions. He has a
vision to emancipate and empower masses to stand on their own. He loves people by
the way he acts.
DM:
Apostle Sibiya celebrates 20 years in ministry and 14 years for the ministry.
Share us your feelings on these developments?
EZ:
We have accomplished a lot in terms of numbers and resources. I had no vision
beyond living when I met him but he made me a better person with a vision. I
was coming from a life of sin. I am now a strategist.
DM:
As a leader, can you share what your father has taught you. How would like
Apostle Sibiya to be remembered?
VZ:
He invests in human capital. He once gave me ownership of his library. He
invests in human resource, just like when Jesus trained His disciples before he
left them. We must enhance and empower others for the future, just like what
Apostle Sibiya has done.
