RENOWNED South African gospel musician Ntokozo Mbambo will headline this year’s Call to Worship “Night of Worship” set for October 11, 2025 in the capital.
Mambo — regarded as one of Africa’s best gospel voices — will lead thousands of worshippers in an evening of praise and worship, which will also feature the Call to Worship Choir, alongside various church choirs.
“I can confirm that Ntokozo Mbambo will be singing and worshipping with us at this year’s Night of Worship. Yes, those attending can expect an anointed evening of worship and powerful praise as we come together to uplift the name of Jesus,” said Apostle Philip Pike, the co-founder of Call to Worship Global.
“We are excited, because there is something powerful about people coming together with one heart and in one spirit to worship and praise the Living God. Even as He is lifted up, lives will be restored.
“We, in fact, see the event as a celebration of God’s goodness and a sacred space for healing, restoration and unity.”
The award-winning Mbambo, who was born in 1985, began singing gospel music at the tender age of 15, when she joined gospel ensemble Joyous Celebration, becoming the youngest member of the group at the time.
Her breakout solo career eventually established her as one of South Africa’s and the continent’s most respected gospel artistes.
Over the years, she has won numerous awards, including the Crown Gospel Awards and the South African Music Awards (SAMAs).
She has also performed on the biggest gospel stages internationally, alongside top gospel musicians such as Nathaniel Bassey.
Renowned for her powerful vocals, Mbambo’s music is marked by themes that include restoration, healing and intimacy with God.
Her catalogue includes hit songs such as “Jehovah is Your Name”, “In the Shadow”, “Esiphambanweni”, “Worship Medley” and “Filled”.
The Call to Worship “Night of Worship”, which is considered one of Zimbabwe’s largest interdenominational gatherings, is expected to draw thousands of believers and worshippers.
“Seventeen years ago, the Call to Worship movement was born from a deep desire to create a unified altar of worship in Zimbabwe, where all denominations, cultures and generations could come together to honour God,” said Apostle Pike.
“It was never about building a stage, but about building an atmosphere — one voice, one altar, one sound to the King of Kings.
“In a world where many are searching for answers, God is inviting Zimbabwe to return to the highest posture: worship.
“We are not gathering for entertainment or tradition.
“We are gathering to place the crown where it belongs, and to acknowledge His majesty — not just with our songs, but with our lives.”
Call to Worship Global mobilises more than 200 churches across the country and draws thousands of worshippers annually.
