The
Ministry is comprised of six pillar sub-ministries which are fully fledged
ministries in themselves. They are run on a day to day basis each by a Senior
Pastor/Minister. These are:
1) DANEM Evangelistic Ministries
This day and age has seen the explosion of the mega-church which predictably
has been centred on prosperity gospel. While this has been a worldwide
phenomenon in the second half of the 20th century, in Zimbabwe, this
is a fairly new phenomenon which has evolved the last decade or so. A lot of
Bishops, Apostles, Prophets etc have arisen to lead these movements. Most
churches today do everything but evangelise. There are all sorts of ministries
within the church youth, ladies, men’s ministries and even business ministries
but hardly evangelistic ministries of any kind. When they do, the closest they
do is asking people to join their churches. We are not here to judge anyone
because that’s not our role, but we believe evangelism is about preaching the
gospel to those that are lost. DANEM will work to engage in hard core
evangelism as a sending ministry targeting remote and oft forgotten areas. We
will collaborate with existing bona-fide churches, ministries and other
religious organisations to go for outreaches, crusades and evangelising workshops.
The Ministry will sponsor men of God to go and plant churches in remote areas
and assist with construction of churches in those areas. We will also minister
to prisoners and the sick. The sooner we as Christians realise that we are instruments that God has chosen to use and that we need more soul winners as opposed to being armchair Christians, the better.
2) DANEM Discipleship Training Ministry
To
achieve our mission objective, there is a pressing need to build capacity in
the form of training the disciples who will engage in the actual work of
evangelising. We realise that the evangelists need to be adequately and
appropriately equipped to carry out this ministry. As one of the five-fold
ministries evangelism is the life blood in the veins of any serious Christian
organisation and to show that DANEM takes its evangelistic ministry seriously
we will ensure that discipleship training support is offered to all those who
are prepared to go out. This training will be in the form of:
·
Formal discipleship training
·
Literature support
·
Media support (videos, audio, website)
3) DANEM Series: Media and Literature Ministry
This ministry will concentrate on provision of literature and media
materials for entire DANEM Ministry and specifically to support DANEM
Discipleship Training Ministry. It will also embrace music ministry, visual,
audio and video production and general media presence such as websites,
Facebook, Instagram, twitter etc. It will also incorporate live TV broadcasts
of services and events on platforms such as FB and YouTube etc.
4) DANEM Foundation Care Ministry
Any ministry that does not care for society’s underprivileged is not
complete in both its mission and substance. Our care ministry, through DANEM
Foundation, will provide support (in both cash and in kind) to orphans, widows
and the old who cannot easily fend for themselves and are among society’s most
vulnerable.
5) DANEM Empowerment Ministry
Based on the adage ‘give a man a fish and you feed them for a day and
teach a man to fish and you feed them for life’ DANEM concentrates on teaching
and giving upcoming and young adults real-life skills. We believe that the
young are the leaders of tomorrow and we need to catch them young. DANEM will
provide youths and young adults such as fresh college graduates with the
following:
·
Vocational training
·
Youth Professional/Career Development
guidance
·
Youth Ministry/Outreaches
6) DANEM Accountability Ministry
As a
ministry we believe that we are accountable to God and man. This ministry will
ensure the organisation has proper governance/oversight structures and
regulatory frameworks (policies, procedures and systems). We will also ensure
resources raised to support the Ministry are properly and fully accounted for
(to the last cent). This will include providing oversight to and holding
partners whom we support accountable for use of allocated resources.
As a matter of policy, DANEM will not take tithes, first fruits or seedings for prosperity but we do take offerings, thanksgivings and partnerships for those who would like to contribute towards Kingdom work and ultimately to the growth of God's Kingdom. This pledge was made
by the Under-Shepard when God planted the ministry into him. Most people now
believe that some people start ministries or churches to make money. For these
people, it has become church business instead of business of the church. And
this is true for some but not for all. We do not want the issue of money, real
or perceived, to detract from our core mission – preaching the gospel of Christ.
The Under-Shepard
believes that if man does not fund this ministry, then God himself, the Founder,
will provide the resources required to carry out His work through DANEM
ministry. Besides, all silver and gold belong to God (Habakkuk 2 v 8) and the
earth is the Lord’s and its fullness thereof (Psalm 24v1). The Under-Shepard
started and has to date run this ministry primarily from personal resources
which God blessed Him and His family with. DANEM welcomes contributions from
any individual or organisation who wants to worship God with their substance
and partner us in the work of proclaiming the word of God to His people Link to partner with danem.
All contributions are accounted for in full and disclosed accordingly (unless where the benefactor requires anonymity). Full accounts will be drawn regularly and shared with
7) PARTNERSHIP PAYMENTS
Do you want to honour God with your substance and give a free will offering to God (2 Tim 2 v 20-21; Luke 8 v 1-3; 2 Cor 9 v 7). You can support the work of the gospel through the various projects that DANEM is carrying out and contribute to the growth of the kingdom of God, freewill partnership payments are open. Kindly approach the Principal Administrator with your freewill offerings, thanksgiving or partnership contributions in any currency.

We are also looking for churches and like-minded organisations that we can collaborate with in the preaching of the gospel to approach us and let us know how we can work together in advancing the kingdom work of the Kingdom. Your contribution in cash or in kind can make the difference in facilitating us to carry out the last mandate given to all believers by our Lord Jesus Christ – the Great Commission.
