SOUTH AFRICA SHEMBE CHURCH

Members of the Nazareth Christian, (Shembe) Church salute their leader as he arrives for the church service on the holy Nlangakazi Mountain north of Durban, South Africa, Saturday, Jan. 14, 2006, in an annual pilgrimage. Worshippers gather in a makeshift camp at the base of the mountain then climb to the top barefooted where they pray and worship their prophet Isaiah Shembe. The church is the oldest African Independent and Indigenous church in South Africa. (AP Photo/Themba Hadebe) COPYRIGHT SCANPIX Code: 436
