Description
-
Ekupakameni, KwaZulu-Natal. 100,000 pilgrims start a three day barefoot walk from the headquarters of the Nazareth Baptist Church, or Shembe Church. Shembe is a staunchly traditionalist Zulu cult that was founded in 1913 by Isaiah Shembe after a vision. Their beliefs are a mix of Old and New Testament and the ancestral veneration of traditional Zulu culture.
