We conducted a 1-day education seminar in Shakumbila Chiefdom, Mumbwa district in Zambia on September 20, 2023. We had 35 participants. Our aim was to educate 43 couples for the Heavenly Tribal Messiah activities of Teze, Kouame and Kone Families.
His Royal Highness Dr. Shakumbila began his opening remarks by welcoming the initiative and emphasizing that out of all the religious organizations that have visited the chiefdom, this is the first time he has heard such a message that covers all aspects of life. He encouraged all the senior headmen present to pay attention to the educational content because it discusses the principle of life centered on true love and the family as the school.
After the opening remarks by His Royal Highness, the national leader, Rev. David Isaac Phiri was welcomed as the main lecturer. He commenced his presentation by elaborating on the nature of God as a harmonious being encompassing both masculine and feminine aspects, expounding on the purpose behind His creation, and elucidating the responsibilities of human beings, who are conceived as His own children. Rev. Phiri emphasized our duty as children to bring joy back to the Creator by establishing an ideal family, tribe, nation, and ultimately, a harmonious world. Rev. Phiri also addressed the reasons for the non-achievement of this goal and proposed methods for its restoration.
Following Rev. Phiri’s enlightening discourse, Mr. Kouame shared insights into the realm of family values. He underscored the paramount importance of the four realms of the heart as the foundational elements of all relationships. Mr. Kouame delved into the genuine nature of relationships between children and parents, among siblings, within the marital bond of husband and wife, and between parents and children.
At the conclusion of the workshop, the participants conveyed their heartfelt appreciation for the valuable insights they had gained regarding the identity of God, the purpose behind His creation, and the vital role that humans play in achieving His ultimate objective. The senior headmen couples who were in attendance reached a collective decision to renew their marriage vows. They came to this resolution after comprehending that they had entered into their marital unions without the blessing and authorization of God.
