Working towards the betterment of communities and beyond
Gal 6:2 "Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."
The American Board Mission in Rhodesia (now the United Church of Christ in Zimbabwe) was established on 19 October 1893 at Mount Selinda Mission through the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM), now Global Ministries. In 1938 a union of the General Council of Congregational and Christian churches with the Evangelical and Reformed Church was proposed, but it was until 1957 that a body of delegates from both denominations, meeting at Cleveland, Ohio, elected a constitutional committee. In July 1961, in Philadelphia, a constitution was adopted and the United Church of Christ was established.The first church congregation was started in 1897 at Mount Selinda and the Mount selinda church building was built in 1919. Almost at the same time, the first church congregation also started at Chikore. A number of preaching points were established in Chipinge before the first urban congregation was started in Harare in 1955.

UCCZ Church
The UCCZ practices faith in action through what are now known as Spiritual Councils, the biggest of them being the Conferences. Prior to 1998, the single Conference was known as the "Association of the United Church of Christ in Zimbabwe". In 1998 the Synod of the UCCZ passed a vote for the establishment of three Conferences of the UCCZ namely the Eastern Conference with thirty-five (35) churches, the Northern Conference with twenty (20) churches and the Western Conference with eleven churches (11). Further to the Conferences, the UCCZ provides specialised fellowship through specialised Councils for different interest groups namely Junior Sunday School , Christian Youth Fellowship (CYF), Ruwadzano , Volunteers and Christian Men's Fellowship.
