More about MZBC
Our Pastor
Pastor Tanko Brain
Lead Pastor of MZBC Bamendankwe
Tanko Brain is a Young and Gifted teacher of the Word of God. He has been doing this since 2013 while he was in High School and is engaged into full time Pastoral Ministry since his Seminary Training from 2014-2017. He earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Pastoral Care and Counseling from the Cameroon Baptist Theological Seminary in Ndu upon graduation in 2017 and has taken several other trainings in Pastoral Ministry and Leadership. He is an effective communicator and speaker, due to which our church members easily get and apply the Word of the Lord in their lives. He is the administrator and Visionary of the Zion School of Ministry (ZiSOM); a ministry training school equipping Christians for effective service in their local congregation.
Pastor Tanko's Bible based, Visionary, and Dynamic Leadership is something we take pride in. His love for God and commitment to the service of the Church has encouraged members of the Mount Zion church family to take up personal ministry engagements within the church and the community. Since he became our Pastor in March 2021, we have enjoyed every moment with him and we have experienced growth beyond measure. We Love him dearly!
Our Mission
Mount Zion Baptist Church Bamendankwe exists to Proclaim the Gospel Holistically in Expectation of the Coming Kingdom of God.
In fulfilling this mission, we spend our God given resources in the following areas of growth and influence in our church and community;
Bible Study
We give special attention to in-depth study of the word. Every Sunday morning, Wednesday Evening, and during various small group meetings, Pastor Tanko and our dedicated team of volunteers in the Christian Education and Discipleship Ministry explain the Word of God to us in a manner that every member can relate with.
We enjoy studying together, but we study also individually throughout the week outside of our church gatherings.
Worship
We spend quality time in worship. Our Music and Worship team is thoroughly equipped to lead us in worship every meeting day. We invoke the presence of God and commit all our cares to him as we daily ascend to the throne room of his Majesty with our praise and Worship.
Prayer
Prayer is our bonding factor. We value private and corporate prayer. This explains why our Sunday evening meetings (Liberation Hour) are dedicated to worship and prayer. Mount Zion Christians and those from other churches come every Sunday from 4-6:30pm to pray and seek the face of God.
We have a powerful prayer team and we intercede daily for our members and our community.
Service
We serve Christ, the Church, and our Community. Members of our church serve each other and the community in various ways. Each member considers themselves an ambassador for Christ in their area of service in the community.
Our members serve in local Elementary and Secondary Schools, NGOs, various Government institutions, Health institutions, Water supply establishments, etc. We are represented in every part of community and we take Christ to our peers and coworkers in love and through faithful service.
Children's Ministry
Our children's ministry is intentionally set up with qualified volunteer staff to ensure sound biblical teachings and deep worship/fervent prayer. The teachers and coordinators lead the students through their activities in a fun and friendly environment.
Using games and special tools to teach the children, our children's teachers are among some of the most loving and gentle people you can have in our community.
