Who they are
The Dombe are a small Bantu ethnic group living mainly in western Zimbabwe, in rural communities and near preserved natural areas. With a strong connection to the land and their cultural heritage, they preserve their mother tongue and community values established over generations. Their traditional beliefs deeply shape daily life, leaving the gospel still distant from their experience.
