Through his calling of building prevailing churches, Grace Bible Church has gone

Bishop Mosa has been married to Overseer Gege Sono for 34 years and they
have two sons, Nkateko and Nhlamulo Sono. The couple believe in keeping God
at the center and value family.
Overseer Gege Sono accepted Christ at 17 years old and has been following Him since. Being from Rockville in Soweto, she was an active member at the local Rea Leka Youth Club which taught her the discipline and value of prayer.
After high school, she decided to further her studies at the University of Bophutatswana, where she obtained a degree in Public Administration. Pastor Gege got employed under the Bophutatswana government as an internal auditor after varsity. While working in corporate, she met Bishop Mosa Sono. After tying the knot, she decided to withdraw from her occupation and give herself fully to the work of God under the leadership of her husband. Pastor Gege is a humble individual who always seeks to lend a helping hand to those in need, and her background in Public Administration has equipped her to work with people in achieving that. Her leadership is stern and is guided by Kingdom principles. During her continuing journey of being at Grace Bible Church, Pastor Gege has spearheaded many community building initiatives. One of the notable initiatives was the Soup Kitchen, which she ran with a collective of women from the church. This Soup Kitchen would provide meals to community members who did not have the means to provide meals for themselves. Those who know her personally know her to be a fun-loving individual who values time with family. Her mission is to stand in the gap for those that she loves but most importantly, for the children of God’s Kingdom. All these attributes are made evident in the way she prays and leads.
