The Platinum Tour

After the Gold Partners successful launch, our Platinum Partners had an early Christmas treat, as we gave them the opportunity to tour the Audio-Video studio that is currently under construction.

We took our partners through a step by step tour of the audio-video studio, explaining in detail the ‘Drum Room, the ‘Green Room’ and what the rest of the studio would look like - “visualizing the future”.

After the tour, we took our partners into the control room, the ‘heartbeat” of Celebrate Life, and they had an exclusive preview of the new dynamic productions coming up in 2010.

We signed off the evening, with Pastor Tom spending time with each of our Platinum partners.

We’re looking forward an exciting year in 2010, together.

Telling a vision through television

The vision that God gave Pastors Tom and Bonnie - to build people and build dreams, to transform lives and reform nations - continues to be echoed through out the whole world. It is carried in the Kingdom teaching, anointed music, and through the life testimonies of real people whose dreams are being built every day.

Celebrate Life captures the story of Celebration Ministries International in its epic proportion. It’s the story of perseverance and persecution, building people and building dreams from one of the most challenging environments in the world, Zimbabwe. But more than anything, it’s like the book of Acts relived in the 21st century, witnessing miracle after miracle, breakthrough after breakthrough. Seeing the power of God in all and through all.

1 Corinthians 1 verse 9 says “But God is faithful (reliable, trustworthy), and therefore ever true to His promise”. We strongly believe that God is using our Celebrate Life partners to fulfill that vision. You play a very significant role, every time you sow seed, the Kingdom of God advances.

Thank you for fulfilling your pledge.

Mathew 13 – The Celebrate Life Amplified Version

A sower (a celebrate life partner, a reformer, a builder of dreams) went out to broadcast (to sow seed over a wide field) the message of reformation [on God TV, Loveworld, ZBC, Citizen TV, KBC and beyond].


Some of the seed fell on good soil (men and women with good hearts that had ears and eyes that were receptive to the kingdom message) and yielded fruit (disciples, reformers). They started cell groups that grew in to Celebration Churches, some thirty, some sixty, and some even a hundred times in the UK, USA, Malaysia, Dubai [and all over the world].


Some people were transformed and went into their domains (media, business, agriculture, medicine, education, family and government). They were building people and building dreams, transforming lives and reforming nations.

All that glitters is gold!


We are short of superlatives to best describe our recent Gold Partners Launch. The night was full of golden moments. Our Gold Partners came out in style, elegance and full of enthusiasm ready to Celebrate Life!

First we took our partners on a 30 year journey of our history in a 5 minute documentary clip. Then Pastors Tom and Bonnie Deuschle shared their vision for television and presented each partner with a unique gift.

It felt a little like Christmas as all our partners removed the wrapping at the same time, to reveal their special gifts.

After an amazing night of celebrations, we still had one more special treat for our gold partners. Nothing could have prepared them for a surprise peek into the new audio video studio. If the photos are any indication, there is nothing in this world like being a Celebrate Life Partner!

My Celebrate Life

We are constantly looking for new ways not just communicate but to enhance our experiences with all our partners. As technology is constantly changing there is no better way to do this than through “the pulse of the universe”, Twitter.


Twitter is one of the fastest growing social networks on the internet, it’s easy to use, it’s compatible with your mobile devices and is one of the tools we are using to effectively strengthen our relationship.


For all your latest real time headlines on what’s going on with Celebrate Life and the partners’ blog, follow all our “tweets” on www.twitter.com/mycelebratelife

Celebrate Life Partner Profile

We have to admit we are really inspired by how diverse our partners are from children, to entrepreneurs, families, and even churches.


This month we want to give special acknowledgement to two of our special partners, Celebration Church Borrowdale and Celebration Church Westgate. They have been supportive, faithful and consistent in fulfilling their pledges.


Since May 2008 Celebration Church Borrowdale have been supporting Celebrate Life and have sown their seed every month without fail. They have modelled true partnership and have shown us why they are the launching pad for reformation. Celebration Church Westgate has shown us that the size of the church does not determine the size of the gift being given.


We would like to sal

ute them for partnering with us in taking the message of reformation to the world. Watch out for the next partner profile, it might just be about you.

You are a world changer

You go where we go! We recently discovered that Celebrate Life has a large viewer ship in Mauritius. This is a small island off the coast of Southern Africa. We have been receiving huge amounts of traffic from this island.

We were very curious so we did some research on Mauritius. We found out that the island has a population of less than a million people, but most surprising was that it is dominated by the Islamic religion.

We have also had traffic from countries like Djibouti, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and even Japan. All these are not Christian nations but we are clearly making an impact, and truly bringing the message of the Kingdom and reformation to the ends of the earth.

So where ever Celebrate Life goes, you go as well.

Visualizing the future

2 years ago, we had a vision for a studio. We stepped out in faith with what we had, our partners brought in resources and we built a temporary studio at the back of our main auditorium stage.

To date, we have shot over 100 productions in our cosy little temp studio.

With our vision of reaching the nations with the message of reformation advancing, we must stay aligned with global production standards. So, we began to visualize a larger, well equipped studio allowing us to do multiple productions at a time.

We stepped out in faith again, and the construction process of the new audio-video studio began in the basement of the Celebration Centre in 2008.

The New Audio-Video Studio being built

We have only begun this chapter … this is the audio-video studio today. It will be equipped with state-of-the-art production equipment. How awesome is that, to have a world class studio in a Zimbabwe!

We want to encourage our partners to continue to fulfil their pledges, to see this vision become a reality.

Thank you for your devotion to the vision, together we are bringing reformation, one person at a time, one family at a time, one community at a time and one nation at a time!

Entering the Kingdom

It’s happening again … we recorded Pastor Tom teaching Entering the Kingdom! This teaching is a tool that will be sent to all our international believers across the globe, to equip the saints! This is only one of many teachings on DVD that we can look forward to!

This was a milestone, as we used our newly acquired drape frame (15m wide) that transformed the auditorium, into a television studio, and enabled us to record with a live studio audience!

This is only the beginning … Thank you for being part of our vision and for fulfilling your pledges.

August 6th was a very historic moment for Celebrate Life. We celebrated our inaugural Platinum Partners event in Harare.

As a token of appreciation to the generous seed that our partners have been sowing Pastor Tom and Bonnie, gave each of our Platinum Partners a globe, which serves as a reminder of how they are reaching the world with the message of reformation.

" You are literally doing what Jesus said, 'Go into the whole earth'. Thats awesome and we are deeply grateful." Pastor Tom

Pastor's Tom and Bonnie Deuschle had a special gift for all the partners who attended as well as shared with them an exclusive video documentary of the history of Celebrate Life, its current achievements and future endeavors.
