MCF (Mushayamunda Christian Foundation)

Impacting lives and making a difference

Mushayamunda Christian Foundation was formed in early 2000 by the Mushayamunda Brothers and their families, Dereck (Yvonne), Dennis (Girlie) and to serve the people of Matsai area in Bikita, Zimbabwe. The brothers were inspired to start the organization in honor of their late parents Tangston (Matangira) and Sipelile (Mai Lee) who loved the people and who were faithful servants to the people of Matsai.

MCF seeks to partner with like minded people and churches/organizations to create inspired serving opportunities directed towards disadvantaged communities, especially orphans and widows whose life processes have been changed by the prevalence of AIDS and poverty in Zimbabwe. For a few dollars a day you can support life changing ministry efforts towards orphaned children, support the availability of clean drinking water, augment food availability by developing irrigation/gardening projects, buying basic food stuff to feed the hungry while carrying out the great commission as envisaged in Mathew 28.

Please pray for these 3 main goals for 2021

  • To keep all our 15 pastors.

  • To remain effective in what we do despite the limitations by the pandemic.

  • Last year we did the reading and preaching through the New Testament in one year. This had a huge impact on all our churches as it raised biblical literacy to new levels. So, when the pandemic hit and churches were closed, this was the surest way to keep members engaged in the word. By public demand, all the churches requested to re-do it this year to make up for interruptions last year and for those who had no bibles. We therefore are praying for God to raise helpers to enable us to buy 1,000 bibles at $10-00 each. So far, we have commitments for $1,000-00 to purchase 100 bibles.

Fanuel Mashoko

Fanuel - Zimbabwe.jpg

Fanuel is an identical twin to his brother Francis, born and raised in the Mashoko area 51 years ago. His dad was a teacher in the local village schools circuit. Fanuel and his twin became Christians at a young age, but became passionate about their faith at High School at Mashoko. They met Dereck Mushayamunda at Mashoko High School were they were all very active in the students’ Preachers’ Club, and would travel into the surrounding villages at the weekends to preach. Dereck as a one time  leader of the Preachers Club  was instrumental in recruiting the ‘twins’ and several other guys for bible training at Zimbabwe Christian college in the capital in Harare. After the three year program, the twins came to the United States to do a degree program with a major in Bible at the then Kentucky Christian College in 1988. On their return to Zimbabwe, they taught in a rural Secondary School and thereafter at Zimbabwe Christian College where Fanuel rose to the position of Vice Principal. After about eight years at the College Fanuel and his family moved to Botswana, a neighboring country west of Zimbabwe where he served as a missionary.

On his return to Zimbabwe in 2010, Fanuel joined Mushayamunda Christian Development Trust where he serves as the administrator and lead minister. Besides his administrative functions, Fanuel has been the point minister for Mukanga Church of Christ for 18 months now. He has also acted as the point chaplain mentor at Mukanga Primary and Secondary schools, and currently serves at Odzi Primary and Secondary Schools.
