Once a year 20,000 followers of the Shembe Church gather to walk 50om to their holly moutnain to pray and dance and enjoy the community of fellow Shembe worshipers. The founder of the church, Isaya Shembe, claimed to have had been approached by the Holy Spirit on top of the sacred mountain of Nhlangagazi in Kwa Zulu Natal more than 100 years ago and thus started the Shembe church. Seen as a mixture of Zulu tradition and Christianity, the church reveres the late Isaya Shembe as an African Messiah and emphasizes the Ten Commandments. EPA/KIM LUDBROOK Dostawca: PAP/EPA.
