The New Jerusalem Church

Heart and Soul

Available for over a year

Worshipers call it “The New Jerusalem”. The Kimbangu Church is a huge building in Nkamba in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is painted in green and white – the colour of hope and the colour of saintliness – and the spiritual leader of the church is referred to as a god. William Edmundson climbs up the New Jerusalem steps to meet him. (Photo: Kimbangu Church. Credit: 鶹)
