He praised the eight pastors for their sterling efforts and resilience in studying the word of God.

"We support the empowerment of clergymen and women especially as they study the word of God. We are behind you and I urge you bafundisi not to tire but to continue learning so that you can go out there to feed the people who are hungry of the word." said Rev Ncube.
