In a powerful demonstration of compassion and faith, His Word Is Power International Ministries recently embarked on a transformative outreach under its Prisons Ministry, titled Giving Back – Zimbabwe Prisons Visit. The initiative brought hope, healing, and spiritual nourishment to incarcerated individuals across Zimbabwe, reaffirming the church’s commitment to restoration and redemption.
A Mission of Mercy
Led by the church’s dedicated Prisons Ministry team, the visit focused on engaging inmates with the Word of God, offering prayer, and distributing essential supplies. From heartfelt worship sessions to one-on-one counseling, the outreach created a sacred space where inmates could reconnect with their faith and reflect on their journey toward rehabilitation.
Gifts of Grace
The ministry provided practical support in the form of hygiene kits, food parcels, and spiritual literature. These items were more than just donations—they were symbols of dignity and care. Many inmates expressed deep gratitude, noting that such gestures reminded them they are not forgotten and that their lives still hold purpose.
Voices of Hope
During the visit, ministry leaders shared messages of encouragement and renewal. “We believe in second chances,” said one team member. “God’s grace reaches even the darkest corners. Our presence here is a reminder that transformation is possible.”
Testimonies from inmates revealed the emotional impact of the visit. One participant shared, “I felt seen. I felt loved. I now believe I can start over.”
Worship Behind Walls
The atmosphere was filled with praise as inmates joined in worship, singing songs of hope and deliverance. The presence of the Holy Spirit was palpable, turning prison courtyards into sanctuaries of grace.
A Broader Vision
This visit is part of a larger vision by His Word Is Power International Ministries to extend its reach beyond traditional church walls. The Prisons Ministry aims to continue visiting correctional facilities, offering spiritual mentorship, vocational training, and reintegration support.
Why It Matters
In a society where prisoners are often overlooked, this outreach serves as a beacon of light. It reflects the heart of Christ—one that seeks the lost, heals the broken, and restores the forgotten.
