Zonal leader of Christ Embassy, Pastor Ruth Musarurwa could not hide her joy as she confirmed during a midweek prayer service that their leader, Pastor Chris will be coming to Zimbabwe on Sunday (7 May).

So many healings are going to take place. People are going to believe that Jesus Christ is alive," Pastor Musarurwa was quoted as having said by our sister paper Sunday Mail.
