HISTORY:

 

The Worldwide Family of God Church was born in 1980 on the wave of a revival that broke out in southern Zimbabwe in the late 1970s.  Founded by Apostle Andrew Wutawunashe, the Church grew in leaps and bounds in that special move of God resulting in the planting of churches in more than 30 cities, and later in the 52 Growth Points in rural areas, as well as in small towns, villages, and settlements throughout the country. A period of growth followed, during which the Church in the area became the nucleus for multiplication, giving rise to hundreds of satellite churches in their environs.  

 

By 1985, a door to the nations was opened.  God, who from the very beginning stressed the “all nations” focus of the vision, opened doors into Zambia, Botswana, the United Kingdom and many more countries to come.  To date the Worldwide Family of God Church is in sixteen nations in Africa, Europe, Asia and the Americas
