What Peace Can Do for Us: Reflection from the General Secretary of the Zimbabwe Council of Churches

Posted on News by Global Ministries (Disciples of Christ and United Church of Christ) · September 22, 2020 4:28 PM · 1 reaction

A reflection on the International Day of Peace from Dr. Kenneth Mtata, General Secretary of the Zimbabwe Council of Churches

Today is the International Day of Peace. It's a significant day for us as a nation but indeed for us as a church. We insist that the quality and sustainability for our national development is largely dependent on the quality of our peace.  Negative peace only means there is no outright war. Positive peace speaks to the qualitative coexistence of all actors in an environment of cooperation in spite of the differences.

ZCC Ecumenical Response on the COVID-19 Pandemic

Posted on News by Global Ministries (Disciples of Christ and United Church of Christ) · April 14, 2020 3:00 PM

From the Zimbabwe Council of Churches

The first case of COVID-19 can be traced back to the 17th of November 2019, according to media reports on unpublished Chinese government data. The report, found in the South China Morning Post, indicates that Chinese authorities had identified at least 266 people who had contracted the virus last year and who came under medical surveillance. Thus the earliest case was that date– which was weeks before authorities announced the emergence of the new virus. It was not until February 14th, 2020 that the first case in Africa was reported, in Egypt. Even then, the first case in Southern Africa was only reported in South Africa on March 5, 2020. By then, Zimbabweans began to realise that they too were at risk. Indeed, on March 20, 2020, Zimbabwe recorded its first case.
