NOVEMBER 2024 NARRATIVE REPORT
INTRODUCTIONS
At the end of each month, we look back and see that the hand of God continues to be with BVBIZ in the process of advancing His Kingdom. A lot was done in the month. The term came to an end successfully. BVBIZ organisational structures continue to function. The goal to have proper classrooms and offices remains alive. These and more are covered hereunder.
1.0 TERM ENDS
The second term ended successfully. Exams were written successfully as well. Grading is in progress. The following subjects were taught and completed in the term; Homiletics I, Hermeneutics I, Galatians, Godhead, Acts of the Apostles, Old Testament History, horticulture, and Music (on going). Two workshops took place. The first was a sustainable agriculture workshop facilitated by Healing Hands International whilst the second was on Chaplaincy Studies facilitated by the Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services (ZPCS). Great appreciation goes to the teachers and students for the effort they put in to make this term a success. Students are now on a well-deserved break.

3.0 WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?
In October, the school hosted the Annual General Meeting, the Preacher’s Retreat, Graduation and Fundraising program. Whilst the board and management played different roles in making these programs a success, another wing left attendees in awe. Many were asking, “Who are these people?” These are the BVBIZ provincial ambassadors. These have been part of BVBIZ’s success story and BVBIZ story cannot be mentioned without mentioning this wing. The team directed the preacher’s Retreat besides shaping and directing it. The team was also heavily involved in the running of the both the graduation ceremony and the fundraising program. HATS OFF TO THEM! The following is the list;
