Former Envoy Cindy Martin speaks out about Agape Abuse

Agape Ambassadorial Structure crumbles down as second Envoy speaks out...

Once upon a time in 2012 October I found myself  at Gartmore in Scotland at an Agape Women's Conference after my ex husband had arranged for me to be driven there by Yvonne Gayakaya though I had no money to pay for the Conference. I found myself at the conference, crying like a lost little girl in the toilet  because I had no money on me, not even for food, yet I had been forced to attend Conference by my husband. I knew they wouldn't let me get into the conference. I texted my husband and told him I shouldn't have come without money, within a few minutes of texting my ex husband, lo and behold I received a call, it was Dr Masocha, "The Holy Spirit told me to call you, don't worry my baby girl, go to Cousyneuk with Sandra, you don't have to pay to hear the word of God", he reassured me. So the first night of the conference I slept in Sandra Masocha Chihuri's luxury bedroom, were she told me that she and Sharon Masocha were not going to pay the £100 charge for the conference. Sandra told me to stick with her the next day, and I would be okay. However on the entrance desk Sandra explained herself to Board Member Noriya Chokuda, saying she didn't have the money, I was standing next to her thinking she was going to speak for me as she had promised me, but alas,  I was suddenly abandoned at the desk by Sandra and Board Member Noriya  Chokuda looked at me with bulldog eyes, in fear I started stammering as I dint know what to say, the next minute I was being ripped into by Board Member Noriya  demanding the £100 or I was not entering the Conference. I  was reduced to tears as Sandra and Sharon looked on,walking past me entering the Conference.  I was told by Board Member Noriya I was not going to eat any food at the conference or go in the dining area because I had not paid, yet Sandra and Sharon Masocha were allowed to eat food without paying.

 

However an envoy by the name Cindy Martin took pity on me as she witnessed my ordeal at the desk, and she brought me food to eat when the leaders were saying I was not allowed to eat. That night Sandra was going for a night shift at Holliday Inn so I had nowhere to sleep. Envoy Cindy then sneaked me at night into the Envoy's Luxury Quarters. I was truly touched by her true Agape love, because she fed me when I was hungry, she gave have me a place to sleep when I was destitute at an Agape Women's Conference. When Board Member Noriya was chasing me away and denying me food, Envoy Cindy showed she was a true leader who did not tolerate any form of power abuse and she put the needs of a sheep first. I had never seen this kind of love in Agape.  Dear readers, below is an email addressed to all Envoys by former Envoy Cindy Martin before the Envoy Board Meeting on December 22 last year. Early this year  former Envoy Cindy Martin contacted me to let me know that she had resigned from her office as an envoy as she had been castigated and targeted by the rest of the envoys for seeking the truth over serious allegations that had been raised on this blog. The ex Envoy becomes the second person in the leadership and ambassadorial structure of Agape to come out openly in pursuit of justice  regarding the sexual, financial, physical and spiritual abuse happening in Agape. I will not say much on this post I will let Cindy's email do the talking. The word of God says, ^"Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues, Rev 18:4", I am truly humbled by former Envoy Cindy, as she has listened to the warning of the Lord and has chose to come out of Agape and not be defiled in the name of power and leadership. Below is the email from former Envoy Cindy.

 

 

 

Dear Envoys

 Revelations 6:9  And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:¹⁰ And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

Proverbs 17: ¹⁵ He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the Lord.

 

My apologies if I come across as patronising or arrogant, that is not at all my intention. Its taken me a lot of courage, self searching and divine guidance to pen this.

I do not believe it’s a healthy situation when pastors start operating in anonymity fearing victimisation/persecution from fellow pastors within the house of God, in a church supposedly full of the love of God. Its high time we reconnected with our Lord and saviour and stand for the truth as ambassadors of Christ. We need to retreat and study the word of God and seek guidance and understanding from the Holy Spirit.

 

I was certainly affected by the allegations that the Glasgow meeting was a scam and the fact that our commissioner and envoy Muchie were supposedly conniving in the gents taking us for fools.Its very disheartening. I had certainly left Glasgow in a positive state of mind and optimistic that change was coming. However what came to light post Glasgow led me into my own retreat and reflection on the entire goings on and has led me to openly share my concerns.

 

Before anyone throws the ‘touch not my anointed’ cliché which religious leaders have grossly taken out of context and misled, manipulated, abused, intimidated and dominated many in the modern day body of Christ (I didn’t say in AGAPE) I will share my understanding of the scripture. Loyalty is a good thing if it is for the right purpose and for the truth. One, I can only assume, would not want to be loyal and find they have pledged their allegiance to something that is false. Let God’s word count on this one, so please let no one certainly use it as a threat against me, I am standing for the truth in the fear of the Lord.

The word ‘touch’ actually meant physical harm, not criticising/correcting/saying something about a spiritual/religious leader being publicly criticised or spoken against for ungodly activities/conduct. That’s exactly what David did to Saul, he said he would not harm Saul (physically) but he spoke publicly about/against him and his ungodly acts. Not only David but Samuel also ‘touched God’s anointed’ as he spoke out against the king’s disobedience (1 Sam 15:3-24) when anointed Saul lied and only told half the truth.

 

JUST SO WE ARE CLEAR, I AM NOT HOLDING ANY SWORD AND ATTACKING THE MAN OF GOD.

 

I love him just like the next person and have stood and sweated and defended the vision and visionary with passion but its high time we stood on the word of God on behalf of the flock that we have been encouraging in this stormy atmosphere. I have certainly laboured, sacrificed my holidays and left the church in Chinhoyi full up and growing. I encouraged and brought fellow saints and leaders who had fainted in the vision in Zimbabwe therefore I have a few of souls depending on me who are following

my lead so I want to make sure I am in the right path.

I will base my point on the teachings of the Apostle, he clearly stated ‘follow me as I follow Christ’ and also advised us to QUESTION him if he did or said anything contrary to the word of God..

Also on page 76-78 of ‘Threshing Floor D.I.Y Style’ the Apostle wrote

‘…now don’t get me wrong; I am not advocating silence over matters that need to be validly dealt with in the church…..’ p77 ‘A terrible thing that was actually said or done.True or untrue, it is still a whirlwind.’

 

I my humble opnion, such is  the set up of AFNAMI where the structure starts and ends with the Apostle who is unfortunately in the middle of this whirlwind. I feel we as the appointed shepherds need some clarity so we can be sure we are leading God’s people in the right path and certainly to support the Apostle as necessary.

 

I certainly do not believe its acceptable and advisable to have an envoys meeting two days into the conference. There is bound to be much threshing floor weeping and wailing and lots of talk about forgiveness and my guess is by the time we come to the meeting, everything will be dismissed under the guise of the threshing floor. The church is facing very serious allegations and its definitely time to act whether in or out of the T.F season. It appears as if its not feasible to meet prior to the conference, then maybe beloved envoys we need to start our conference from the meeting on Saturday. We seriously need to put our house in order prior to crossing over into 2014. Gone are the days of keeping schtum when we know things are not right. I do believe a meeting is of high importance prior to any national gathering and we need time for everyone to openly share their concerns. We have fasted and prayed and now its time to  treat this cancer from inside instead of temporary plaster treatment which has led us to where we are today as a church.

 

After the way we have toiled in this storm, and penning our concerns in Glasgow, are we to hear of changes if any at the conference? Do we not deserve the respect of another meeting to discuss the changes if any as spiritual leaders. We have only met as envoys board on two occasions this year ie January and in June. However when there was a crisis we rose up and kept going, and despite the short notice we turned up for the crisis meeting. How faithful is that despite the pain that most envoys have/are going though in our respective satellites with minimum or no support for some. Other envoys have suffered at the hands of bullying saints who claim to be close to the Apostle. Despite of all this we turned up. Do we not deserve a little more recognition at least. The steering board however enjoy monthly meetings. Could this be financially motivated? After all they are the ones who allegedly own most of these alleged hush hush companies and allegedly vote for these hefty salaries as per blog. We are shepherding God’s people surely we need a lot more support, supervision and guidance. This storm if anything has shown the importance of long forgotten, longsuffering skint envoys (kinda full time really all them calls at work and texts/emails to deal with, I rest my case) who most Sundays travel faithfully form satellite to satellite on empty fuel tanks mostly. Who get slated for enjoying envoys upkeep(surprised I can spell that) which most of us have never had and are apparently the most gossiped about individuals in surgeries,(I never made it a secret I read the blog) and the butt of most jokes when it comes to tithing. We have muddled through encouraging the flock even when we were at our lowest ebb. I thank God for the few envoys who have been teaming up with me in prayer and encouraging me daily, it can only be the grace of God that some of us are still standing.

 

I for one am also struggling with the threshing floor this season bearing in mind that a  lot of saints have been defamed and left ‘naked’ as collateral damage but not even a single apology has sufficed from the church. Not even a sympathetic phone call to the victims acknowledging the pain and turmoil that people are going through. A lot of innocent souls have left church some headed back into the world and we have continued as normal. I was really amazed when I found out there was a retreat for the tambourine ladies (most of them waiting ladies)with the Apostle without the Prophetess despite serious allegations of a sexual nature. The church is full of anointed leaders who could have taken over such commitments if need be.

I just found out this week via calls from a couple of worried mothers that the youth outwith the age of consent, hold surgeries with the Apostle and are sworn to secrecy. This if true is misguided confidentiality seeing as some of the allegations now are meant to involve these young persons. I am sure these parents may have been agreeable or even sent their young children to cosy/surgery on their own through ignorance, I don’t know (which is why we need an audience) but there is now a lot of suscipicions and discomfort within many households. A few mothers especially are in turmoil. If this is true, why would teenagers be taught to keep secrets from their parents? What happened to the Lord’s commandment (Exodus 20:12) to honour thy parents? These are some of the issues that need urgent attention if true, and considering the laws of this country this should have never happened. Is this not where we need to make changes and be allowed to be more active as envoys and let the structure of the church be in operation for once instead of all roads leading to the Apostle? Irrespective of who to blame, back to the teachings, I find this contradictory and conflicting to the teaching (Stirling 2 June 2013, honour thy father and mother) and is it a wonder most of our young people have become wild and disobedient to their parents and the commandments of God? This is serious stuff that we cannot afford to sweep under the carpet both as envoys and parents. Is it not high time we had an audience with the Apostle.

People’s jobs are at stake, marriages in quandary, families left torn apart and we are claiming to be on the threshing floor? The blog is still running and reputations still being tarnished and we just thresh and run with vision as normal? Our Lord Jesus had love and compassion, I am sure struggling to find it in this debris.

 

As envoys we have been standing and encouraging the church since the start of the storm which is showing no signs of calming down. We have all in some way taken part in the deterioration of the state of the church and our interactions with the Apostle. We departed from the word of God and forgot that He is a jealous God who shares His glory with no one. Certainly the heavens are speaking and we need to take heed if the church of God is to move forward.

Last but not least, unless I am wrongly in formed, there indeed was a an incident where some young people had sexual encounters at the conference. My understanding is one young girl slept throughout this ordeal but another girl who apparently narrowly missed being ‘raped’ (the mother’s words) watched these activities all night. As an envoy with a daughter who narrowly missed attending the conference, it took the blog to bring such serious issues to my attention. What is going on fellow envoys, we lock up TV channels to protect our children but they become exposed to such depravity at a church gathering? I understand from one of the mothers that the parents were not formally informed of this and no apologies were issued by the church to date. My question is are these young people going through counselling or was any offered? Was there ever any follow up? I am really struggling with the way things have been going in the church on the spiritual side while there is much shouting and screaming and record keeping and follow ups when it comes to the financial side. Once again is it any wonder that we are where we are today. Who is at work here? What kind of spirits have been/are operating in the church?

 

Yours in Christ

 

Cindy Martin

 

 

JULIUS GAYAKAYA'S LETTER OF LIES TO AGAPE LEADERSHIP

On Wednesday, 27 November 2013, 12:52, Julius Gayakaya <kuleguyfox@gmail.com> wrote:

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ our Saviour. I hope you are fine. Can I point out few things to clear the mist.

The writer of this long document has missed facts, either he is ill advised, ignorant or have some hidden motives and agenda. I am very surprised that one can jump into conclusion and parade the leadership of Agape as a group of abusers who are hiding evil deeds in the church before searching how all these allegations mushroomed. May I stand up and state categorically that the notion of bundling myself and my family as wrong-doers or abusers of Jean is just utterance with no basis. If one would visit this area (liverpool, Southport,Wigan, Preston) and ask anyone in the community about Jean's life, one would get a same answer from people who have nothing to do with Agape as well as from the Agape saints.

 

For your information the incident which triggered Jean to start slandering people happened in my absence. On the day in question when an ambulance was called by the Musuka family after Jean had stood in front of the church and started speaking vulgar words directed at her mother-in-law, I was not there.When her mother-in-law and and her sister-in-law Patience walked out of the church she followed them outside telling them to stay and listen to her testimony, I am told she was asking them if they have ever slept with Shingi? This led to her mother-in-law to call an ambulance for her.

Jean's blog is littered with my name simply because my crime is to be a saint in Agape.

 

 After the church incident, Jean went home and questioned her husband why he could not stop his mother from calling an ambulance after her outburst in church. This led to Jean reporting her husband to Lancashire police station. When her husband visited the police station to seek help with Jean, he was informed that  Jean had reported that she had been assaulted by him leading to his detention for 8 hours. He was later released because they have a long record of Jean's numerous incidents. Where do I come in here to be labelled an abuser.  Jean decided to move to her brother in Southampton pulling her 3 children out of school after Shingi had sought refuge at his parents' house for 2 days. 

 

The issue boils down when she request her husband to leave his parents and their matrimonial house and move to Southampton to stay with her away from the Musuka family. When the husband turns down the move he automatically became a monster in Jeans eyes. As you can pick from her blog she worked hard to persuade the Archbishop to demote her mother-in-law Steward Fabbie Musuka and Envoy Getrude Mburayi because her mother had called the ambulance for Jean. The leadership in area 7 could not support her that she was wronged by her in-laws by calling an ambulance to take her to the hospital because we have tried for the past 5 years for her to seek medical help to no avail. Each time Jean stood up to give a testimony the Church could flinge in antitipation of  vulgar sexual talk.

 

She writes in her blog that she was chased by Agape people from her house. Are all the families around here evil simply because we supported a family that is going through hardships by praying with Shingi. Surprising enough after 2 month in Southampton Jean pulled her children out of school again to bring them back because Southampton Social Services had requested that she take off her childrens' photos from her blog which were paraded to the world.

Where does all the people who are labelled abusers get involved especially those from around Liverpool, Southport and Wigan. We have suffered a lot of character assassination,slander, emotional and psychological torture as we tried to accommodate Jean as one of us in the hope she will come to herself. Those who are quick to swallow Jean's story without getting the other side are just meddling in uncouthed cooperation with a person bend on vindictive malicious slander.What happenned in the surgery have nothing to do with Gayakaya and the families who are subjected to this mudsling.

May I bring to your attention that Jean's church outburst was not the first incident of her flipping behaviour.There are events before she came to join Agape which were brought to my attention as the Chairperson of the Sefton and NorthWest Zimbabwean and Friends of Zimbabwe Community.

 

 

As calm as I always be, I find the email disturbing, patronising and hope to highlight to you and the writer that it is worth and wise to find the facts before wadding in and stepping on the bruised toes of the victim in the name of being the wise mediator. I have nothing to DEFEND the Apostle because in my eyes he is innocent until proved guilty by the law. Maybe you have issues you know, about the Apostle but I am as ignorant as the word, hence I am looking at the events which led to the writing of her blog.We have a number of Police log numbers against Jean after she contacted our work places for us to be dimissed. What will she benefit if 7 families all lose their jobs. The employers contacted suspended and re-instated their employees after suffering constant email and calls from Jean. They later realised that something was amiss about her.

 

With that in mind I believe I have highlighted events leading to the blog and I am not as evil as I am potrayed in the blog neither is my fellow victim of the malicious writing. I will remain in prayer hoping you will join in so that the blowing wind will come to pass with our lips not full of garbage, hence I will shut my mouth again.

I am not hurt because I am up above this child play and belittling talk. Nobody will take away what I achieved through hard work and perseverance. Nobody will become big because they have belittled me. Nobody will become Holy because they have labelled me unrighteous. Nobody will become educated by calling me unlearned. You cannot become rich by labelling me poor.

 

Lets get the facts first and help the saints.

 

God bless you

 

 

Dr Gayakaya

MY RESPONSE TO JULIUS GAYAKAYA

Dear Julius Gayakaya

 

Firstly you are not a Doctor mate, okay. Can you just do us all a favour and stop addressing yourself as doctor. You are a learning disability nurse. You have serious issues and you need to get over yourself. You are a pathetic liar dude. You are a 52 year old man, old enough to be my father, can you please start acting your age old man.

 

Listen dear old man Julius, I do not know you, okay. If you noticed during my two years in Agape I never used to talk to you at all, my ex husband had warned me several times about you. You are not my type of person, you dirty old man. How my ex husband told me a number of times that you are a power hungry person who will do anything to be recognised as a somebody. I never thought you would go this far Julius.

 

Its funny how you seem to know a lot about me, you old man.  You are a lying manipulative individual its unbelievable, as I said you are old enough to be my father you 52 year old man Julius.

 

For your own information I never speak vulgar language, its not in my nature or genes, I was never raised like that. I was raised by my parents better than that.  I have the DVD for Sunday 14th July and I never gave such testimony you claim. What a liar you are. You called my family on the 17th of July and asked them to take me for a mental health assessment. You are pathetic dude, get a life. All these lies Shingai Musuka telling you, anyone believing such garbage is insane. I have never been arrested by the police all my life. I have never been diagnosed of a mental health illness. You are a serial liar, its unbelievable.

 

Let me tell you this Julius, my God is a God of justice. I serve a Mighty God, the Lord of hosts, whom vengeance belongs. Watch my God unleash His wrath upon Agape For All Nations Ministries International. Look how God is favouring me. You all labelled me insane, but funny that insane girl has caused so much confusion in your kingdom of darkeness. You don't even trust each other because emails are being leaked to me everyday, that's why dumb Alois Zunguza paid someone to hack into my emails. Can you not see that God is on my side? The more you try to destroy me and hurt me, the more my God will fight for me. You have caused enough pain in my life its now time for me to take a breather, please leave me alone Julius Gayakaya the Leaning Disability Nurse.

 

 

I may not have a big audible voice, I may be but a tiny drop in the ocean, but even a tiny drop can sparkle. I have a host of enemies surrounding me. I will not be afraid or intimidated by you Julius. Boldly I will continue to stare the beast in the eye. Like the little shepherd boy David who took down Goliath, I swear to hold this head of Goliath one day. I have had enough experience as a shepherdess for the 13 years I was with Shingai. On my own in the wilderness I faced and fought with lions, (Gertrude Musuka) and bears ( Patience Musuka). I have 13 years experience of fighting vicious wild creatures (my in-laws) as they tried to rip my precious sheep apart (my three beautiful children). I am a good shepherdess, I look after my sheep. How can I not take down this Goliath, an uncircumcised Philistine who is making a mockery of my God, (Agape and the leader Walter Masocha). Nay, as long as I am alive, I will continue to stare this beast in the eye.

 

For your own information Julius, please get your facts accurate, I moved to a women's refugee not my brothers house. Social Services actually love my blog and follow it lol, they commend my writing skills and tells me I am very brave for writing this blog. They also tell me I am very intelligent. They think you Agape guys are a bunch of bullies. You make me laugh dude. You are hilarious. I came back to my matrimonial home because I was advised to do so by my mentor Muzvare Betty Makoni who is working tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure justice is served. So please get your facts right before you write lol.

 

Hope you did have a good weekend in Scotland at the Board Meeting with the Archbishop, Most Reverend, High Commissioner, Apostle, Dr Walter Masocha.

Yours sincerely

 

Jean

 

PS: Shingai Musuka, Julius's letter to Agape Leadership has you written all over it. I cant believe you continue to betray me like this Shingi. I bore you 3 beautiful children. I am the mother of your children. How can you let me be abused by Julius Gayakaya? How can you tell him lies about me so he can tell the whole of Agape? I forgave you Shingai, vengeance belongs to God, He will plead my cause.

 

Below is a picture of Julius and Yvonne Gayakaya on his 50th birthday wearing Agape Tshirts.

Oh just to prove since leaving Agape I can now afford to get my hair done.

 



What the £100k salary for the Prophet meant for me...

Lets talk British Poverty, shall we?

On the 14^th of June 2013 at around 1800 hrs at Wigan Community Centre, Joy Fatima Maxwebo, Yvonne Gayakaya and the wicked Gertrude Musuka formed an orderly queue as they testified to the paramedics that I was an unfit mother in urgent need of sectioning. Have you ever wondered why they called me mental? Have you ever wondered my dear readers, why I was cruelly labelled insane by Agape For All Nations Ministries International? I never thought would share this with you, these are the deep secrets of my heart. I wasn’t even going to include this in my book. But I came to the realisation that I did nothing wrong, it was never my fault, and if I hide this from you all I am only protecting the empire of Dr Masocha. In the two years of Agape, I was reduced to a charity case (Social Services can confirm everything I am saying). Life got so unbearable I contemplated suicide. I said with Job, “It was better for me if I had not been born”. I walked a road where I thought those who are dead are better off; I had no reason to live, save my three beautiful children. They are the only reason I am here today, I live for them.

So Gertrude Musuka and her team told the paramedics that Jean once tried to kill herself. But she din’t stop there, she went on to describe my poverty in detail to the paramedics, “The children are malnourished, she can’t feed them. They live in extreme poverty”. Those where the words of mental health nurse Gertrude, as she loaded her car boot with the “Envoy Groceries” that she had received that day. My children were not malnourished, but I am sad to say I did live in extreme poverty, so much I wanted to die. Gertrude Musuka knew well of my poverty as she would often visit my house (unannounced) for ritual prayers. She would come to my house and say she had come not as my Sister in law, but as a Pastor to pray for me and the children. She just used to turn up at the doorstep unannounced. Then she would offer prayers or rather impose her satanic prayers on me in my house. She would pray and pray and pray, often with crocodile tears asking God to take away our poverty. But funny enough not once did she ever say to me, “Jean my sister, I see your pain, I see your lack, here is bread and milk for the children” Never ever. At one point things got so bad we started receiving food parcels from a local church nearby, but not once did I ever receive financial help from Pastor Gertrude or Agape though they were very aware of my poverty. However they waited two years later to mention it to the paramedics at a church service so that my children would be put in foster care. This is not my shame but Agape’s shame. I will not hide the evil deeds of Dr Masocha.

 I am not ashamed to say during my two years in Agape the following disturbing situations unfolded before my very eyes in my life:

·         We often lacked electricity and my children and I would stay without power for days

·         We often lacked food enough to make a meal, my children did not know how an apple tasted like as fruits were a luxury we could never afford in Agape

·         We had no beds to sleep on, we were told by Envoy Muchengeti Hove to throw away things that connected us to the past, we threw away our bed and could never afford another one after that.

·         My ex husband Shingai Musuka used to walk on foot to work a distance of 23 miles and would take up to 8 hours walking because he could not afford fuel for the car. I once told Dr Masocha that my husband was walking on foot for 8 hours and was concerned for his health but the Prophet ignored my texts. Shingai would have blisters on his feet and he was extremely stressed.

·         My ex husband Shingai Musuka could not afford clothes anymore, he started going to the rubbish tips to pick clothes from the bins. I cried when one day he came home with a pair of shoes from the dump and said they were still okay to wear. I would often throw the stuff away without him noticing.

·         My ex husband Shingai Musuka used to pick our children clothes from the tip, I used to throw the clothes away as they were too dirty and smelly.

·         My ex husband Shingai Musuka stopped buying the children clothes altogether, during my two years in Agape, my children often wore rags and shoes with holes in.

·         We stayed for over a year without a fridge freezer and washing machine, we used to sneak to a nearby university campus at night to use the student washing machines.

·         We had times when the children used to go to bed hungry, there was just never enough food in the house. We lived on basic rations, bread, peanut butter and mealie meal. We couldn’t afford the other normal food eaten everyday by the average Britton.

·         My ex husband started wearing ripped clothes at times I was embarrassed to be seen walking next to him.

·         My three children are British, but I know  they have lived in poverty that would shock even the Prime Minister David Cameron, I don’t even think the British Government would believe there are British children who can suffer like that in 21^st century Britain. I will be including the shocking poverty I suffered in Agape in my book He Was My Daddy, what I have shared with you dear readers, is only but the tip of the iceberg.

Whilst all this poverty was ripe in my house, my husband had a good well paying job; I was doing a part time agency job and we were getting child tax credits and benefits, but we found ourselves in extreme poverty that I would say even those in Africa were better off. We never missed an Agape conference, we paid our offerings in church, we even gave the Prophet money, yet we were living in extreme poverty at home. We also had to pay rent for Wigan Satellite, we were also responsible for buying groceries for Gertrude Musuka because she was our Pastor, yet we lacked food in our house.

Agape may call me mental, but I believe I was strong to survive such harsh conditions of life under such an evil cult. Dr Masocha was fully aware of my poverty, I told him over and over of our situation and he often trivialised it. I would ask him why God was allowing such suffering and he would rebuke me and say I needed to exercise the fruit of the Spirit and if I was not careful I would steal my own blessings from God. We even paid the expenses of printing the Magazine from our own pockets at the expense of our children. The Prophet would tell me if I continued giving my tithes and paying money to the Church, my breakthrough would come shortly. I waited and waited and waited till the cows came home. Sadly the breakthrough never came. If anything, every day the poverty got worse. I know for certain my ex husband Shingai Musuka is still hanging in there in Agape thinking his breakthrough is about to come.

My ex husband Shingai now lives in his mother’s one bedroom cramped up flat in Southport. He sleeps on the floor in the lounge next to his sister Patience Musuka. They sleep together in the same room basically, whilst Shingi’s mother and father use the bedroom. It’s a living set up I will never fully understand in this life. A brother and sister sleeping on the floor together in the United Kingdom, anyway I shall not say any more. I just hope Emmanuel Oga (if the wedding is still on lol) is comfortable with his bride to be Patience and Shingai sleeping together. Anyway...

I can confirm today that the Agape curse of poverty, especially that of hunger and starvation has been fully broken and destroyed and I can now afford to eat food in a restaurant, something that was beyond my wildest dreams during my membership in Agape. I could never afford such a luxury. I only used to see Facebook pictures of Sandra and Sharon Masocha in expensive restaurants.

 

Like the daughters of the Archbishop (below) and their best friends enjoying the good life, I can now also eat "nice food" in a restaurant. 

 

 

 

 

As you are aware that Dr Masocha recently purchased a Range Rover (under the guise of a single mother). I am also pleased to confirm that God has also elevated me that today I can be seen driving and sitting in the same car that Dr Masocha is driving. My ex husband Shingai and his sisters have never set foot in a Range Rover before, so are many, if not all of the children of Agape. But its truly humbling for me that the curse is finally broken and here I am on the 27th of Novermber 2013, a historical day for me. 

 

For me I can confirm that my financial breakthrough fully came the day I left Agape. That’s when the chains of poverty were broken in my life. I can also confirm that Dr Masocha is not the anointed of God, please feel free to say anything about this phony, God will not curse you. Dr Masocha is not anointed. He is a false teacher and a thief living off peoples hard earned cash. Yes it so true, to confirm that here is a letter from Dr Ven that confirms Dr Masocha is a thief:

Why I resigned from Steering Board and Finance Boards

I was appointed to the Steering Board in February 2009 and at my first Steering Board meeting in Coventry the following month I was asked by Dr Masocha to be in the finance committee. The month following there was a Steering Board meeting in Kent. When we arrived one of the items on the Agenda was a proposal to increase Dr Masocha and his wife’s salaries by 5%. When we were asked to vote to approve, some individuals asked how much they were currently earning. Ian McHardy said that the Board was not supposed to know Dr Masocha and his wife salaries. We were then asked to vote and four others and I did not put our hands up and we were accused by Dr Masocha of being sell-outs. We were then asked to vote again and everyone put their hands up. I was uncomfortable but because I did not want to be the odd one out I had to do it. On my way home Ian phoned me three times and I did not answer as I was driving. I then returned his calls when I got home. He told me that he was having problems with filling in charity tax returns in respect of the two employees (Dr and his wife). I told him that I was going to buy a ticket and travel to Stirling to do the work. When I arrived in Stirling I found that Judith had paid around £10,000 and Dr Masocha £13,000 in taxes. However, I did not find out how much they actually earned. Anyway later that week we had a Finance Board meeting. Ian told the Finance Board that he was happy to announce that the pay rise for the Apostle was unanimously approved by the Steering Board. I was amazed because I knew that everyone had been forced to vote despite not knowing what their salaries were. I then enquired how much Dr Masocha and his wife earned before the increase and was told £55,000 and £45,000 respectively. I then asked how much the gross income for the charity was during the same financial year. I was informed that it was £240,000. I then asked the Finance Board how they could justify Dr and his wife taking 42% of the gross income. I was told that the salaries were set using the Archbishop of Canterbury as the benchmark. I was not happy so I asked the Finance Board to minute that the salaries were excessive in relationship to the gross income of the charity.

When I was flying home from the meeting I also started remembering that the last time I was in Scotland to fill tax returns I did not see any money coming from the media being deposited in the accounts. Also missing was any money from other international satellites.  So when I got home I thought things through. I told my wife that I was uncomfortable with the Dr and his wife’s salaries. In particular I was not happy with Dr Masocha’s wife earning £45,000 given that those days she was not preaching. My problem however was that I could not ask the Dr and his wife to take pay cuts and then expect to remain a board member. So after thinking things through I told my wife that I was going to tell Dr Masocha about three things that were wrong and then resign. In an email to Dr masocha I told him three things that had informed my decision to resign and these were (1) his salary and his wife’s were too excessive given the income of the charity. In particular there was no reason to pay his wife given that he was not doing anything for the church. (2) Despite the members of the church being asked to buy DVDs every Sunday that were produced by the media, the money was not going into the church’s bank account (3) Despite the church paying pastors in international satellites, the money from tithes from those international satellites was not being deposited in the church’s bank accounts. I concluded the email by saying that for these three reasons I tender my resignation.

When Dr masocha saw the email he contacted me and talked for about an hour. He said that his wife felt that I had stabbed him in the back. When I asked him why he was earning so much given that the church was still young he said that it was because he had put up some money to start the church.  I then told him it was wrong to earn money that way. I advised him to start a business instead. After that conversation the next Board meeting was in Bournemouth in July 2009. When he came he asked the pastors to contact me and my wife so that we could talk face to face. My wife and I met him with his wife at the pastors’ residence. I basically reiterated that I was very uncomfortable with those three things. He accepted that and then said since my wife and I were appointed separately as Board members it does not mean that if I resign my wife has to do the same. When asked about our final decision I told him that I was resigning and my wife opted to stay. Later that evening the Board (which my wife attended) was told that up to that point the media money (from DVD sales) was going into Chiedza Zunguza’s bank account but now he wanted to open a separate church account into which the money would go. When I was told later that evening I said to myself, at least I have achieved something by resigning.  I believe that what I have said is all true and anyone who doubts me ask Dr Masocha and if he disputes anything please let me know.

This is my last letter to you because I have told you everything that I personally know. My aim in all this is not to destroy your church but so that were issues need to be rectified you can ask your leaders to do so. God bless you all.

Below is a picture of Dr Masocha and his team during a luxury holiday in Macedonia in November 2012. During his holiday in Macedonia, I was at home with no food or electricity. I had received numerous calls and texts messages from Agape leaders asking us to buy holiday clothes for Dr Masocha and his wife for the Macedonian Holiday.

Below is a picture of Sandra and her husband Geoffrey on their £3000 5 star holiday in Mexico Cancun paid for in full by church member and Envoy Jessie Dekeza. 

 

Agape needs to offer an apology not penalty for Abuse Scandal...says some leaders

 

Emergency board meeting on the 30th of November in Scotland to address crisis

 

When it comes to idol worship, most people think of carved images and people bowing down to them.  Yes that idolatry alright, but I believe it goes deeper than that. In a Church called Agape, “Daddy” has written three booklets called, Vision Dynamics, I Believe and Threshing Floor. The booklets/pamphlets cost £10 each even though they cost about 50 pence to print. Every true Agape child has to have one, says the Prophet in a threatening manner. The books have pictures of Dr Masocha's face on the covers. Dr Masocha often talks about how the pictures of his face on the booklets have power to heal, bring breakthroughs etc. He says in his own words, “MY CHILDREN IN AFRICA KEEP GOING BECAUSE OF MY PICTURES ON THIS BOOKLETS”. He claims that by just looking at his photographs, church members in Africa are given strength. But then it even goes further than that, a single mother  named Ruth from Stirling is responsible for selling portraits of Dr Masocha in his Archbishop attire. At every conference Ruth goes to the pulpit and starts to yell and cry ordering church members to buy the “anointed” portraits. She tells the members that the portraits will bring breakthroughs into one’s life by just hanging it in the living room.  I am ashamed to say I used to have a picture of Dr Masocha in my living room. It so happened one day I was on the phone distressed and crying to the Archbishop (which happened a lot by the way as my life was a misery)  and he told me to take his picture and start kissing it. He told me to kiss his face on the photograph and he said if I did that the God of Agape would give me peace. He told me each time I felt lonely or upset I had to kiss his face. I feel sick that I was reduced to kissing Dr Masocha’s photograph thinking I was worshiping God.

He also gave me his shirt and I used to sleep in. I used to sleep with his used sweaty towels on my pillow. I used to bath using one of his towels. Even my former husband Shingai Musuka sleeps with a sweaty towel on his pillow as I write this, he also keeps one in his car and walks with one bulging in his pocket when he goes to work. Its so sad what grown men are reduced to.

When he makes a grand entrance with his entourage (young women with flags wearing mini skirts and holding umbrellas)  and his security guards everyone stops what they are doing. A song “Father send your servant Walter” is sung, as women flock to the front spreading their jackets for Dr Masocha to walk on. Each church service a “host” is appointed to sit next to the Prophet and carry his bible to the pulpit. The host even has to pass him a glass of water, the Prophet or his wife cant even pour water for themselves!  It is also the job of the host to constantly wipe the sweat of the Prophet. He has serious health issues which he calls “anointing”. But as if wiping his sweat is not bad enough, people are commanded to eat his saliva from left over tea and other fluids.  If this is not idol worship in the 21^st Century, I don’t know what is. Even his step daughter Sharon Masocha once expressed her disgust when in the middle of singing praises to God, the singer had to stop because the Prophet had walked in, instead of continued in worship of God, people started singing Father Send Walter. Sharon Masocha, the Prophet’s step daughter called the incident “very disturbing”.

Anyway here is me rumbling on about idolatry, I'm no theologian okay, so let me talk about something else, yesterday another email  was leaked to me from one of the Board Members in the United  Kingdom. Some leaders of Agape are now calling for a public apology from the Church,  the email went like this:

 AFANMI needs to offer an apology and Not Penalty for Abuse Scandal.

The Church is faced with sexual abuse scandals that have spread across the UK, USA and Zimbabwe. It’s about time that an apology is made directly to victims and their families, expressing “shame and remorse” for what we may call “sinful and criminal” acts committed by our leadership.

These families have suffered grievously, and we must be truly sorry.                    Their trust in the Ministry has been betrayed and their dignity has been violated. I hesitate to admit that they have been grave errors of judgment and failures on our part.

On the surface, it appears that the Board does not require that leaders be disciplined, nor is it making an attempt to clarify what critics see as contradictory rules that they fear, and allow abuse to continue unpunished.

Blog reports are projecting systemic abuse, and others are indicating that the church and its leadership, including myself are in a systematic collusion in covering up the same.

Let it be known that I am taking great exception to my name, my wife and that of my family being drawn into these scandals, and I will be taking stern measures and legal counsel to protect the same.

Am also aware that these cases expose and show the difficulties facing some of us, for though we may feel that the problem has already been decisively addressed by some sources within Agape, it is also appearing to be intensifying, with new allegations of other forms surfacing.

This crisis has damaged the reputation of the leadership, and Agape’s central vision of unconditional love, finding the lost, fortifying the church and fighting the enemy within the body of Christ.

Jean’s blog was anticipated, coming after weeks of damaging reports in the media bringing the scandal close not only to the entire leadership, but also to the Apostle himself.

A matter that has been exposed is the case involving Brother Maxwell Nyakutya which was raised, with bloggers expressing their dismay that the BM who was found guilty of sexual abuse, should never have been allowed to work with vulnerable persons and children.

Though we are aware that the blog remains tightly focused on the goings-on in the UK—to the dismay of many victims’ families around the world —   please note that, the crisis has widened to include the entire Agape family.

Leaders, let us not be deceitful expecting that our stance will sanitize lies, because we know and have been aware that this has been a systemic problem for several years, and let’s not been seen to be protecting the ministry or anyone for that matter, at the expense of the very people we are shepherding.                                                                                                                         

The greatest contribution the Church could have made at the first instance was to stop the abuse of victims, address the entire leadership, the church, sadly of which has not been done.

For saints, observers and critics alike, this incident is offering a critical test of whether we can stem a crisis that has shaken the credibility, and authority of the Archbishop, leadership, and the Church Agape.

With or without our cooperation with civil justice authorities, e.g. Betty Makoni, media and the like, the abuse scandals have put to the test an Agape culture of protecting its own even in the face of crimes against civil and Biblical law.

People are hoping for concrete measures after the reports criticizing our norms for dealing with the abuse. Agape still has to offer a prescription for how to renew their faith. I urge all leaders to go on a spiritual retreat and suggest that we set aside all other activities, and find time to lead the saints to pray for “healing and renewal.”

As a fault of our own making, we are guilty through “perjury by omission” (allowed our-selves to be forbidden to ask important questions), cultivating a strong tendency of approaching such matters as these, as problems of faith, not truly Agaped, lies, demonic attacks, and so on when this is clearly a problem of leadership, management, abuse and a lack of accountability.

Let us also take heed to the fact that the “most glaring” omission in our ‘wait and see’ stance is also our failure to acknowledge our own culpabilities by pointedly not including ourselves in the criticism of the entire church leadership.

 We have to be moved and be direct to the pain of victims. As in this instance, we must be aware that many victims who find that, when they have been courageous enough to speak of what happened to them, no one would listen, and I know some of us will find it difficult to face the saints, even enter the doors of our own satellites and any other church after all that has occurred.

We need to be bold enough to ask those implicated in acts of abuse to submit themselves to the demands of justice, but not despair of GOD’s mercy.

Beyond all these revelations and according to these damning reports, we have been found wanting and that the church did not routinely act upon allegations, committed, and reported cases of abuse.

As reports continue to spread, many questions have been raised about the line between Agape secrecy and civil judicial process.

Our problem has been deepened by ignorance and/or confusion over the interpretation of our unclear, unpublicized church constitution, reiterating a strict requirement for secrecy in handling such cases. Many directives give the authority for handling such cases to a non-existent body within the ministry; with the Apostle being prefect of the same since 2007 to date.

I also see an inherent contradiction between the directive and the Apostle telling leadership to cooperate with ‘them-selves’. The powers that may be say that its discreet/secrecy norms help protect the victims.

I feel that it to be a well-intentioned, but misguided tendency to avoid penal approaches to violations of the law.

The higher leadership attributes that problem in part to a misplaced concern for the reputation of the church and the avoidance of further scandal. And it is said that local leadership should continue to cooperate with the saints in their area of competence.

All these approaches will not, cannot, and will never sanitize lies.

Brethren, let us take a relatively rare step of ordering a special pastoral delegation to investigate these matters. For those who have been forced to sign secrecy oaths, please reconsider, or recluse your-selves from the ministry. 

AFANMI is GOD’s church and as such, he and he alone is to be feared, not man. Let us pray that my proposal letter will be the beginning of a great season of rebirth and hope in AFANMI.
