Good afternoon people of God.
I'm sharing with you the of this ra**st bishop zondo.
Rivers of Living Waters Ministriesâ bishop faces multiple counts of r**e
A congregant has testified in court how she fainted when Bishop Stephen Zondo was praying for her only to wake up naked, her clothes scattered all over and feeling as if she just had sexual in*******se.
The 33-year-old woman, who was testifying at the Sebokeng regional court on Monday, is one of Rivers of Living Waters Ministries congregants accusing their pastor of r**e.
Zondo is facing five counts of r**e and three of sexual assault, which allegedly happened in Evaton, Vereeniging and Robertsham.
This is Zondoâs second r**e trial. He currently has an ongoing case in the Pretoria high court where he faces 10 counts of r**e by seven women, most of whom are members of his church.
According to testimonies heard in court in the Pretoria case, his alleged modus operandi was to lure women into his office to pray for them, only to allegedly sexually assault or r**e them.
In the second case heard in Sebokeng on Monday, the woman â who used to work at the church â accused Zondo of ra**ng her on four occasions and sexually assaulting her at church and also at his home in Vereeniging.
The woman alleged that in November 2013, Zondo r**ed her in one of the church offices and offered her leftover food to give to her father afterwards.
She said before the r**e she was at home when she received a call from her mother telling her to leave everything and rush to church because Zondo wanted to see her.
Upon her arrival at the church, Zondo told her to sit down, she said.
âWhen I got to church I found him in another pastorâs office. He told me to sit down as he was going to pray for me.
âI donât remember the conversation between us, I just remember him praying and I fainted. When I woke up I was naked and felt like I had just had sexual in*******se and my clothes were scattered on the floor.
âHe was fully dressed.
âHe asked me how I felt, where do I come from and what do I remember. I rushed to get dressed because I was ashamed I was naked.
âStaff then brought him food. He ate a bit and then told me to take the food to my father.
âI felt he was disrespecting my father but I took the food, threw away the pap he had eaten and took the meat home,â she said.
Court had to be adjourned for a few minutes to give the woman time to gather herself as she kept on breaking down while giving her testimony
The woman further described how the man of the cloth again r**ed her at his home in Vereeniging asking her to relieve him.
âHe asked to pray with me, I took a taxi to Vereeniging and he picked me up where I got off.
âWhen we got to his house, he gave me a bottle of water from the church that we call miracle water.
âWe then prayed. After praying he said I must follow him to the bedroom. I was afraid because I knew what was going to happen.
âHe came close to me and said I must give him a hug and when I refused he got angry and said I was rejecting him like everybody else. He said he trusts me with his weakness.
âI didnât know what to do, I was confused, and he asked me to ârelieve himâ. He took off my top, saying âplease relieve meâ.
âI was just powerless to fight, I was confused. He undressed himself and I also took off the pants I was wearing.
âHe told me to lie on the bed where there was a towel. He took miracle oil, gold in colour, and applied it on himself before he r**ed me,â she said
The court was fully packed with members of Zondoâs church who were there to support him.
The other supporters who were outside the court kept singing âphakama bishop Zondo ixesha lifikileâ (rise up bishop your time has come).
Zondo is out on a warning and is expected back in court on January 25.

But what surprises me is this:
The court was fully packed with members of Zondoâs church who were there to support him.
The other supporters who were outside the court kept singing âphakama bishop Zondo ixesha lifikileâ (rise up bishop your time has come).
