Gospel sensation and newly ordained pastor, Thinah Zungu, has embarked on an extraordinary journey this year. While the Ngobekezela hitmaker has been actively ministering through the Ark Fellowship Church, he has taken on a monumental task – constructing his very own church worth a whopping R1 million in Inanda, KwaZulu-Natal.
Zungu’s path to becoming a pastor and owning a church was unexpected. But he attributes it to a divine calling that guided him in this direction. He expressed his deep commitment to providing a new place of worship for his congregation. Who had been gathering in an aged structure every Sunday. “We gather for worship every Sunday in an aged structure, yet we are transitioning to a new facility. I never envisioned becoming a pastor, but I felt a divine calling compelled me to embrace this vocation,” Zungu shared.
To fund this ambitious project, Thinah Zungu has relied on the contributions of congregants and the support of his loyal followers. Further, he has invested a substantial R500,000 towards the construction. With an additional half a million required to finalize the new house of worship. He emphasized the importance of having a suitable and comfortable space to praise and worship God. Underscoring that his mission is centered on sharing the gospel and making a positive impact on lives rather than accumulating wealth. “My focus is not on wealth; it’s on leading souls to Christ,” he declared with conviction.
Beyond his pastoral role, Thinah Zungu is a renowned gospel singer, and his son, Ndumiso Zungu, has followed in his footsteps. Becoming a singer and minister through music. The father-son duo recently captivated audiences with a performance of the classic song ‘Nginguthandiwe’. Which garnered praise and admiration on social media.
In the world of entertainment, Thinah Zungu has also achieved a personal milestone by completing the construction of his own home. He shared his home-building journey with fans, emphasizing the importance of homeownership over renting. His journey, which began last year, culminated in the realization of his dream home. A testament to his unwavering commitment to personal and spiritual growth.
In conclusion, throughout his journey, Thinah Zungu has displayed a remarkable ability to transition seamlessly between his roles as a gospel sensation, pastor, and builder of a million-rand church. His dedication to his faith, music, and community shines through. Inspiring others to follow their own unique callings and make a meaningful impact on the world.
