Our Mission,
Vision & Core Values

Our Community Empowerment Projects are at the heart of the Diocese's mission to strengthen communities across our provinces.

We believe that sustainable development comes through education, healthcare, and economic empowerment. Through our initiatives, we provide:

• Support for primary, secondary, and boarding schools across our Diocese
• Primary healthcare services through our clinic and outreach programs
• Agricultural and economic development projects in rural communities
• Technical training programs for youth and adult learners
• Water and sanitation projects to improve quality of life

Your contributions directly impact the lives of thousands of community members, helping us create sustainable solutions that uplift both rural and urban communities. The Diocese continues to be a beacon of hope and growth for all those we serve.

Together, we can transform lives and build a stronger future for our communities.

Our Spiritual Retreats offer a transformative experience for individuals, families, and church groups seeking renewal in their faith journey.

In our fast-paced world, finding time for prayer, reflection, and spiritual growth is essential. Our retreat programs provide:

• Guided prayer and meditation sessions in peaceful, sacred spaces
• Spiritual teachings and theological instruction from experienced clergy
• Small group discussions and fellowship opportunities
• Retreats for specific groups: couples, families, youth, and clergy
• Opportunities for personal reflection and spiritual direction

These retreats are designed to deepen your faith, restore hope, and strengthen your connection to Christ and community. Whether you seek personal renewal or community strengthening, our spiritual retreats create sacred spaces where transformation happens.

Your support helps us continue offering these life-changing experiences to all who seek spiritual growth.

The Diocese is committed to nurturing the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. Our Youth Empowerment initiatives focus on helping young people develop into confident, resilient leaders of faith.

Through comprehensive sports and community programs, we provide:

• School-based and community sports programs promoting physical fitness
• Teams and competitions that teach discipline, teamwork, and fair play
• Leadership training and mentorship from experienced coaches and clergy
• Access to safe spaces and quality equipment for recreational activities
• Mental health support and guidance for holistic well-being
• Scholarship opportunities for talented youth in partner schools

By supporting our youth programs, you're investing in the future leaders of our church and communities. We help young people build confidence, develop character, and embrace their purpose in Christ.

Together, we can inspire a generation of young people to live healthy, purposeful, and faith-filled lives.

The Anglican Diocese of Harare operates some of Zimbabwe's most respected educational institutions, known for their commitment to holistic education and outstanding academic results.

Our schools combine academic rigor with Christian values to shape future leaders:

Our institutions have received national recognition for academic achievement, demonstrating our commitment to educational excellence. We believe education is transformational—it equips students with knowledge, develops their character, and deepens their faith.

By supporting our schools, you invest in the education of future leaders, teachers, doctors, engineers, and changemakers who will serve our nation with integrity and purpose.

Welcome to the Anglican Diocese of Harare, in the Church of the Province of Central Africa. A Diocese which covers four of the Ten National Provinces, that is Mashonaland Central, Mashonaland West, Mashonaland East and Harare Metropolitan Province. We are a vibrant Diocese driven by our vision of being, “A growing united self-sustaining Anglican Diocese committed to living preaching and teaching the Gospel.” In an effort to attain this vision, we are guided by the Five marks of Mission together with recently pronounced Lambeth Calls.

We serve a population of more than 35,000 members and still growing, with over 230 prayer centres under 69 Parishes. The Diocese also runs a number of learning Institutions in form of Five Boarding Schools, Five Secondary and Eight Primary Schools, coupled with one Clinic established to provide Primary Health Care.

We strive to be a Church that operates on the basis of the three-fold purposes: the Exaltation of God, the Edification of the Saints, and the Evangelization of the world as deduced from Acts 2:42. The Diocese plays a pivotal role through a multi-faceted approach in communities we serve, by acting as spiritual centres, moral compasses, and societal safety nets.

Worship in our Churches and Institutions of learning is expected to create an atmosphere of Faith in the Lord, Hope for a better tomorrow, and Love for one another. Guilds were established to cater for all age groups and circumstances. As the Bishop of Harare, I invite you to explore and learn more about our Diocese, from the work being done in Parishes, Institutions, and Guilds.

“May the Lord answer you when you are in distress; May the name of the God of Jacob protect you... May the Lord grant all your requests.” (Psalm 20:1-5)
