The vibrant township church attracts hundreds of worshipers on Sundays, including members of the local community and overseas visitors.
Seats are limited as people far and wide flock to the township church to worship and the church is filled with the spine-tingling sound of African-style gospel singing and dancing. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to meet the regular church members and spend time chatting to them.
During good and bad times in South Africa, township churches have played an extremely important role in bringing together and uplifting communities. The congregations are energetic and dynamic and everyone is warmly welcomed. The soulful sounds of township gospel singing will echo in your heart long after you’ve left the township.

You can join in on the singing and dancing. The church experience is real, not staged and the what you feel will be uplifting and inspirational.
