On the first day of the Passover I decided to accompany my neighbor to her church, which is the SCIM. I was skeptical about the whole thing but I tagged along all the same.
When we arrived at the church I knew immediately that it was the best decision I have taken in a long time. Members of the church embraced me so warmly from the first handshake I got from the usher at the door. It suddenly dawned on me that I was really in the house of the love, which is the house of the Lord.
Throughout the service I felt as though I am already a member, so much that I almost felt holy. There was so much zeal and life in me as I experienced God’s presence, and that is when I felt really alive. Healing took over without any of the pastors laying hands on me.
Ever since then I have returned to the church many times over. There is no other place I would rather be than to be at the Spirit Covenant.

Mpho Letebele: What makes you to attend the church even when it rains?
Elizabeth Masana Mabena: That is in itself not enough for me. I wish it were possible for me to stay here in the house of the Lord. When I am here I very much whole, I feel as though this joy will last forever, it is true when the Psalm says, ’There is fullness of joy in the house of the Lord’. Hence I am forever here.
Is there any difference you have perceived in you life since you arrived here?
A lot has happened, actually. I cannot even begin to describe the level of elevation I feel here. I now know how to pray not only to God but I am now also able to conquer my own demons.
What have been your highlights here?
As it is said in Romans one needs to accept Jesus as his Christ the Lord and Savior. Then one will be saved. I did exactly. Now I am not only am I born again; I even had an encounter with the Holy Spirit. The man of God is a blessing in my life simply because he allowed God to use him as a vessel for me to be saved.
