Unleashed - MTZ

Over the weekend of 1st to 2nd November 2025, our Fine Wine Ministry held the second edition of the Become Retreat under the theme “A Fresh Start”, as we explored what it means to embrace new beginnings. It was an unforgettable two days filled with inspiration, reflection, and renewal.

We were honoured to have anointed speakers who poured into us with depth and grace. A common which echoed through every session was that a fresh start requires us to stay the course, be consistent, and embrace the process.

Reverend Carol Kyakilika opened by helping us reflect on how we arrived where we are and how we can intentionally reset. She reminded us that boundaries are not meant to keep us out, but to keep us safe.

Pastor Tegegne Tebeje stirred our hearts with the reminder that God is magnificently obsessed with us. He emphasized that knowing who we are gives meaning and impact to a fresh start and that it calls for massive action.

On Sunday, Pastor Gladys Paswani concluded with a powerful message on why we deserve a fresh start. She reminded us that acceptance is not settling it is choosing a new direction with courage and faith.

We were also blessed to be joined by Pastor Judy and Pastor Mumbi, dear friends of Pastor Gladys. Both single women, one having gone through divorce and the other through the loss of a spouse, shared their own moving stories of renewal and hope. Pastor Judy, a high-ranking official in the defence forces, and Pastor Mumbi, a serial entrepreneur leading a global group of companies, encouraged us with their testimonies of resilience and faith.

Our Fine Wine Ministry is made up of single men and women aged 35 years and above, who are in a season of singleness, whether never married, widowed, divorced, or single parents. The Become Retreat, held annually, is designed to create a safe space for renewal, growth, and connection for both our single men and women.

We are excited about what God is doing through this event and look forward with great anticipation to next year’s retreat.

See you then!

Last month, we held the second session of Therapy in the Overflow. This session was particularly impactful, offering numerous valuable lessons relevant to our current circumstances. We explored the concept of brokenness in-depth, discussing how God is drawn to our vulnerabilities and possesses the unique capacity to effect comprehensive and lasting healing from the inside out.

The session yielded profound transformations and inner healing. We were also blessed to experience Minister Temwani's powerful deep worship ministry once again.

Look out for the next Overflow coming soon.
