ZIMBABWEAN gospel music sensation Everton Mlalazi continues to extend his ministry beyond the country’s borders after South African songbird Judith Sephuma unveiled him as one of the guest artistes for her upcoming A Worship Experience Live Recording.
The recording is scheduled for November 27 at the Theatre of Marcellus, Emperors Palace, in Kempton Park, Gauteng, South Africa.
Mlalazi, the award-winning singer behind the hit Apo Mambo, will share the stage with an impressive line-up of Gospel heavyweights, including legendary Bishop Benjamin Dube, who mentored Sephuma, and Dr Tumi.
Announcing Mlalazi’s inclusion, Sephuma said she was drawn to his humility, passion for worship and devotion to his ministry when they first met.
“It gives me great pleasure and honour to announce our final guest artiste, Everton Mlalazi. The first time I met him, I connected so much with his humility, his ministry and his love for the Lord. I am so excited and looking forward to ministering with him,” she said.
Sephuma further described Mlalazi as a gifted songwriter and minister whose passion for worship and commitment to spreading the word of God made him a worthy addition to the recording.
The South African Gospel star also expressed her gratitude at sharing the stage with prominent male figures in the Gospel music, describing the opportunity as both humbling and a privilege.
“I am deeply honoured and humbled to be among giants in the Kingdom of God. To stand in the company of men who carry such great wisdom, grace, excellence and a deep commitment to the things of God is truly a privilege.
“These are men who are steadfast in faith, unwavering in their commitment, courageous in their assignment and deeply devoted to the advancement of God’s Kingdom,” she said.
Mlalazi’s inclusion in the high-profile recording is another milestone in his growing regional Gospel music journey, further placing Zimbabwean Gospel talent on the international stage.
