Bishop Joe Imakando

CELEBRATING MY 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF UNBROKEN PASTORAL SERVICE
Today, help me celebrate 20 years of UNBROKEN full time pastoral service under Bread of Life Church International.
I was officially appointed as a District Pastor on the 4th February of 2004 after dodging from the call in the previous years. Honestly, I felt very INADEQUATE & UNQUALIFIED!!
I have served under one Ministry and one Pastor, the Bishop of my soul, His Eminence Bishop Dr Joe Imakando.
I have served as District Pastor, Pastoral Head of Department at HQ, Regional Overseer of Lusaka & Eastern Provinces.
Over the years, I rose to the rank of Reverend and lately Bishop in charge of Lusaka Region.
I attribute my success to the GRACE of GOD and my FAITHFUL service to my Pastor, Mentor and Bishop of my soul for ENTRUSTING me over the years and MENTORING ME until I discovered my calling.
Before that, I started out in the youth ministry, then as a Cell Leader in Chaisa Compound where I faithfully pastored the biggest cell group with average attendance of 130 people per Tuesday evening. We had a small tent outside of the house we met from. I remember the Thursdays I would close my shop and went for visitations with a group of women who were mostly readily available and we canvassed the whole compound to visit and encourage people.
Then I rose to Zonal Leader, Deacon, interpreter in the Nyanja service and finally appointed as District Pastor. One experience I don’t forget as a District Pastor is when I went for a burial service at Leopards Hill and we had to jump in the open trucks carrying mourners as those days, we had few people better still pastors driving. As I came to the close of the burial, we had a heavy downpour, I was soaked with my Bible and I sat at back of the LandRover, thinking to myself, is this what I have gotten myself into? Honestly, when we finally touched the funeral house, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me without offering a closing prayer after all where does a fully drenched pastor with his wet bible get the courage to pray? Anyway great lessons we learned and to God be the glory!!
Finally, I don’t consider myself EXCEPTIONALLY GIFTED but FAITHFULNESS to the CALL of God on my life has brought me where I am and made me achieve what I have achieved only by His GRACE.
HAPPY 20TH UNBROKEN FULL TIME PASTORAL SERVICE BISHOP DR. SHADRECK CHISULO.
