Churches in our sphere have a plurality of Eldership where one of these men has been appointed to be Lead Elder. Because of our values these churches are able to sustain themselves without support from Newfrontiers Zimbabwe. They have their own incomes and are able to support one or more members of staff including at least one member of their eldership team.
Congregations in our sphere are those with a clear leadership team, where members have not yet been brought through to eldership by the apostolic team; this process has begun but has not yet been completed. Another factor is that currently the congregations are not yet able to support themselves without input from the wider body within Zimbabwe.
