The two churches, at St. Matthew and St. Peter’s (Mbedza) out-churches, have been built with support from a Canadian Catholic parish, St. Anne, which provided the community with resources to complete the projects.

The two out-churches, St. Matthew’s Church and Saint Peter’s, are under the Sacred Heart Cathedral and St. Matthias Nankhunda Parish respectively.
