Career and Christian ministry;

Marufu is known for his work as a Christian evangelist, using biblical teachings to address issues affecting individuals, families and communities. One of his documented public ministry engagements took place in June 2024 at a men's conference organised under the theme Creating a Man for Jesus in the Last Days. Representing Bluffhill Seventh-day Adventist Church, he delivered a message titled Chengeta Mhuri Yako, which translates to Take Care of Your Family. During his presentation, he spoke about the importance of hard work, family responsibility and the need for men to provide for and support their families. He also encouraged young boys to develop responsible attitudes towards work and future family life.

Advocacy for responsible fatherhood and family values; Marufu has also participated in public discussions promoting responsible fatherhood and stronger family relationships. In June 2026, he was invited to speak at a Father's Day event organised by Dare Remachinda at Rainbow Towers in Harare. The gathering brought together religious leaders, professionals and other public figures to discuss issues affecting men, including family accountability, responsible manhood, mental health awareness and financial literacy. Other speakers included lawyer Arthur Marara, Professor Blessing Nyahuma, doctor Misheck Ruwende and radio personality Phathisani Sibanda. Marufu also participated in another Father's Day gathering at Baradzanwa in Mazowe, where he and Professor Nyahuma shared messages about responsible fatherhood. These engagements provided an opportunity for him to share Christian teachings with audiences beyond the traditional church setting.
