Statements

Surely if someone wants to know more about the church, they will contact its headquarters. There is no use making unfounded or perceived statements, or even worse appointing oneself an expert of the church without any intimate knowledge or experience whatsoever.

From the article, "The bishop of the ZCC preaches on peace and respect, humble of Jesus Christ ." I'm not really certain what statements like this mean; maybe someone with a better knowledge of English can try a re-write?76.167.202.17 (talk) 16:10, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Annual Pilgrimage to Polokwane

I came to this page wanting to find out more about the ZCC annual pilgrimage. I'd always known it took place, and they're expecting over 1 million pilgrims from accross the country this easter weekend (2008). But I'd like to know a bit more about the history of this yearly journey - what's its significance (Other than that's where the HQ of the church is), what takes place during this weekend, etc. Perhaps someone who knows can add a section? --GrahamDo (talk) 06:50, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

I have been to the ZCC Easter Pilgrimage, and though I do not know it's history, I do have firsthand experience with what happens -though it has been more than ten years. I have difficulty figuring out how to add information via editing, and, as these are firsthand experiences and not 'verifiable', they do not really qualify for addition to the ZCC page. (I do find it odd that the Star of David is presented as a symbol of the ZCC Church, it is nowhere present at Morea. A five pointed neon star presides over that place76.105.218.234 (talk) 04:49, 15 September 2008 (UTC)peatkinsey, september 14ish, 2008

LETS BE AWARE

PEACE BE UNTO YOU

my name is MPHAHLELE THATO DAVID i know nothing about zion christian church but as an ipcc i feel i have to say something,during the easter in moria the spiritual leader of the church doesn't assume or even expecting a certain number,no,he knows very well as the spiritual leader as to how many members will attend the gathering every year,the bible says"many are invited but only few are chosen"with this scripture i just want to tell the members of the public that,whenever you hear huge number of about +8millions members attented the gathering like 2009 easter conference now that another 8millions are not present or even more.

IF SOMEONE WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT ZCC check:

     -psalm 2
     -isaah 2
     -isaah 42

and many more, you will now more about the leader and the church.

WHAT I HAVE REALISED

most people hates zcc with excuse that it has many rules,AAA,NO,NO,i don't agree is not the church nor THE BISHOP but biblical scriptures like:

LIVITICUS(TELLS YOU ABOUT THE RULES OF CHRISTIANS) 1 TIMOTHY 2-10 THEY ARE MANY MORE

FOR MANY PEOPLE WHO ASKS THEMSELVE THE QUESTION"WHY SO MANY PEOPLE FLOCK TO MORIA DURING THE CONFERENCES?) HERE IS THE ANSWER TODAY THIS IS NOT MAN-MADE ANSWER BUT THE ANSWER FROM THE BIBLE:

= PSALM 2 (THE LAST VERSUS) THE BENEFITS OF THE SOCIETY I ZCC AND ABROAD

at first the church builds two high schools, (1)MAROBATHOTA HIGH SCHOOL(ZCC0 (2)MAKGOKA HIGH SCHOOL(ST ENGENAS ZCC) HOW MANY CHRCHES TAKE THE INTERESTS OF THE SOCIETY AND EDUCATION AS THE FIRST PREFERENCE?EHH?

ZCC-AGAIN MADE IT THE POINT THAT THE PEOPLE TRAVELING AROUND POLOKWANE INCLUDING LEARNERS AT ABOVE MENTIONED SCHOOLS PAY LESS IN THEIR DAILY TRIPS(MOSTLY TO SCHOOL AND WORK),BY ESTABLISHING BAHWADUBA BUS SERVICE,WHAT AM SURE OF AS THE STUDENT IN UNIVERSITY OF LIMPOPO IS FROM TURFLOOP TO MORIA WE PAY LESS THAN R5.WHAT A MERCY.

AGAINTHE SAME CHRCH(ZCC)MADE IT THE POINT THAT THOSE LEARNE'S WHO PASSED WELL IN THEIR MATRIC,IN THE FAMILIES OF CHURCH MEMBERS ARE ASSISTED IN TERTIARY BY BISHOP EDWARD LEKGANYANE BURSARY FUND.LAST YEAR 2008 I HEARD THAT THEY GAVE 2 STUDENTS FROM UNIVERSITY OF LIMPOPO TURFLOOP CAMPUS R35000.00 EACH NO FOR SCHOOL FEES JUST FOR THEY COMPLETED THEIR STUDIES,AND THEY WERE FUNDING BY THE SAME SCHEME,PEOPLE R35000+R35000=R70000.OO.THE QUESTION MAY BE HOW MANY CHRCHES IN AFRICA PUT THE INTERESTS OF THE SOCIETY FIRST

Wrong Symbol Used On Wikipedia as a Symbol for the Zion Christian Church at Moria, Boyne (South Africa)

Just out of curiosity, I typed ZCC to find out whether there was an entry on Wikipedia for the ZCC and ended up here. I would like to agree with the author of the above text on the actual symbol used by the church. The one shown on the page is in error. The symbol used here is similar to the one on the Israel flag albeit its dark blue colour. In contrast, the symbol used by the ZCC at Zion City Moria which can be seen on the hill overlooking the church (easily searchable through Google maps) is a SILVER COLOURED FIVE POINTED STAR not a dark blue coloured 6 pointed star as shown in the page. I have been to that place a couple of times during the Easter pilgrimage and I have firsthand experience of the place, interaction with people there from different countries, etc. Besides, I have been a frequent visitor to the church branch in my home country. Most of my family members are baptized in the church and I have never seen anyone wearing this blue coloured six pointed symbol as a symbol for the church. Like I said, this is easily verifiable by going to Google maps to look for Zion City Moria location, there's a hill overlooking the church headquarters upon which a five pointed star symbol is drawn in white colour.Nnyaya (talk) February 17, 2009

It is obvious that you have written about the subject you do not know. For completeness and accuracy, please contact accurate sources.

Possibly Biased Information?

As a new user attempting to improve Wikipedia articles, I noticed some issues on this page that might need attention. However, as I am rather new to editing, I thought I would just point out some sections and words that might not fit Wikipedia's quality standards so that someone else with more experience might be able to service this article. I hope this helps! BlueLinkAddict (talk) 14:09, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

ZCC Head Quarter Visit

Hi everyone,

I will be making a weekend long visit (14 - 16 August) to Zion City Moria, the head quarters and holiest site of the Zion Christian Church.

As an outsider, I wish to document as much as I can and with the purpose of updating this wiki page.

Do you have any tips on what I should record, ask and document.

Unfortunately cameras and phones are not allowed in Moria but I will do my best with a pencil and notebook. Tthando (talk) 22:16, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

ZCC Split

No information about the huge split in the ZCC after 1948 into 2 churches or factions (Dove and Star) each lead by different brothers. This is important history of the ZCC Jcw69 (talk) 13:26, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

This is because nobody has written about it in any sort of authoritative way, and I don't think there were any newspaper articles written about it at the time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:8351:9E00:508C:2D32:5A98:9C2 (talk) 20:49, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
