President Emmerson Mnangagwa of Zimbabwe was welcomed by a large, excited crowd at the 8th National Thanksgiving and Dedication Service. The event took place in Bulawayo at the Zimbabwe International Exhibition Centre Hall.
Reverend Andrew Wutawunashe, who started the Faith for Nation Campaign, came with the president. Vice Presidents Chiwenga and Mohadi were also present, as were Minister Muchinguri-Kashiri and other officials from the government and religious groups.
The theme of this year's service is "Our Nation, Our Opportunity." It celebrates Zimbabwe's progress and examines its future potential.
When President Mnangagwa walked in, the crowd cheered loudly. Musicians from the region performed, including some from Botswana, Zambia, and the UK. People wore colorful religious clothing, including outfits made from Zimbabwe's national fabric.
The crowd was very happy and lively. They sang, danced, and praised God together in the hall. Since President Mnangagwa currently leads the SADC, this event also included people from other SADC countries.
