MANY in this country know her as a racy model, actress and television presenter.
But after finding her purpose in the Kingdom of God, Moreblessing Bishi is now an Apostle.
Not to say beauties can’t be religious, but what a noteworthy transformation it has been!
Believe it or not, the same confidence she exuded on the runway is the same she now exhibits on the pulpit.
“My experience as a model instilled confidence in me as I can stand in front of many people,” she said.
Now going by the title Apostle Moreblessing, the 35-year-old started out modelling at the tender age of 12 back in 2000.
“It was actually my classmates who encouraged me to model. I was always passionate about the modelling industry but I lacked the confidence.
“My very first title was Second Princess Miss Glen View Primary Schools in 2000, followed by Miss Heroes 2002.
“I was a photographer, that’s why I didn’t enter a lot of beauty pageants. I stopped modelling in 2008 to pursue film and television.”
Her most memorable moment as a model was in 2005 when she played a cameo role in the popular ZBCTV soap, Studio 263.
She also participated in the Miss HIV and AIDS pageant, which was hosted by the late Anne Nhira, who played the lead role in Studio 263.
While the glitz and glamour of modelling and television were too much for her to resist, the church was the last place you could possibly find her.
“I didn’t know God and I didn’t think that he had anything to do with me. Now that I know Jesus, I know that some people are called to be models,” she said about her life then.
“I encountered the Lord in 2015 in my late 20s. I met an apostle who was my age and he had his church. I didn’t believe him until he showed me a church flyer with his picture on it.
“Then one day, I told him that I was going to attend one of his church services. In that church service, I decided to give my life to Christ and started serving in the house and kingdom of God.”
She will be back home on May 4 where she will join her host Pastor Sarah Takawira at a one-day conference at the Old Rainbow Cinema in Harare.
