Abstract

The purpose of this article is to critically review the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the landscape of the churches in Zimbabwe in 2020 and 2021. The article is based on the relevant literature review and lived experiences and observations of the authors concerning the landscape of the church during this period. It outlines the negative effects of the pandemic such as restrictions of church attendance to all church members, deterioration of values, low financial income, church doctrine degradation, and modification of Christian celebrations such as Easter. The article details the positive effects of the pandemic such as revitalising house fellowship, practising live-streamed services, increasing the number of Sunday services and the use of digital services.
