President Emmerson Mnangagwa spoke at a church service in Bulawayo on Sunday. He said that the countries in southern Africa want peace and progress for everyone.
Mr. Mnangagwa leads a group called SADC, which includes many nations in the region. Some people from these countries attended the event.
"We thank God that SADC is united," Mr. Mnangagwa said. "We all hope to bring development to our people."
He welcomed the visitors warmly. He told them to feel at home.
The service this year focused on Zimbabwe. But it also involved other countries. That is because Mr. Mnangagwa is the head of SADC right now.
Churches of different beliefs hosted the event, which brought them all together. The theme was "Our Nation, Our Opportunity." They wanted to be thankful for Zimbabwe's progress and see what the country could still achieve.
