St Joseph Missions of Messiah in Africa church in Rongo has been shut down by authorities following a police rescue of 57 worshippers allegedly living within the premises.
The church has all the markings of a cult, according to residents and authorities. Their leader is called Halleluhya—and so are all the other faithful.
This is not your ordinary church. Here, members are required to be buried within 48 hours—and within the church compound.
