BISHOP MACULUVE ORDAINS WIFE, SCARA
MBABANE – Renowned gospel artists Make Maculuve and Scara Maziya were ordained as pastors over the weekend.
The musicians were officially ordained by their fellow gospel artist and God Cares Christian Fellowship Bishop Vusumuzi Maculuve. The special ceremony took place on Sunday at Mbikwakhe where two other mothers of the church were ordained as pastors.
This comes after five months since Bishop Maculuve was ordained by the prominent All Nations Christian Church in Zion Archbishop Bheki Lukhele, at the same venue.
Maculuve confirmed that he had taken another step of ordaining workers of the gospel under his founded charismatic and fast-growing church based at Mbikwakhe. Maculuve came out clean and declared that he caould not do all the work alone hence other serving candidates were deemed fit to be hands of assistance to him.
His wife, Nomvumelwano, an established crowd puller artist, who has all along been a pastor, was ordained as Lady President.
While the Zion singing gospel artist, Scara Maziya, was ordained as a pastor after he publicly declared to be joining the bishop’s church late last year.
Upon joining the church, Maziya made it clear that he loved bishop Maculuve’s leadership style and love for people.
“I will faithfully serve God under my Bishop. My life has changed in the past few months and I believe I am ready for this responsibility,” an excited Maziya said.
The other church members who were ordained are Sikelela Sithole who has been a pastor and the church's chairperson moved to being a President and lastly, upcoming artist, Ndumiso Hlophe, who had been an Evangelist, was ordained as a pastor.
Make Maculuve said she was happy to be serving the church and following her true calling.
In a brief interview, Bishop Maculuve confirmed the news of the ordination.
“We are glad to tell the nation that we trust them and we pray for them to work well,” he said.
Moreover, Maculuve announced that Maziya was also appointed as the church’s Public Relations Officer (PRO) for two years. Maculuve stated that the artist may be reinstated or reshuffled after this period.
He said from now onwards, anything pertaining the media would be handled by Maziya.
Rid
Maziya recently got rid of his trademark Zion gowns for a suit. He is well known for producing hit songs such as ‘Awphinduzame’ and he won the Best Zion award in the Mpumalanga Zion awards.
When contacted for a comment, ACASWA Convener Mathokoza Mtetwa declined to comment as he said he was currently locked in a meeting.
Celebrated gospel music artist and church founder, Mduduzi ‘Gawuzela’ Simelane also asked not to make a comment on the matter. This did not stop Frans Dlamini from congratulating the artists for their newly-assumed duties. He wished them well.
