An African prayer & music campaign
Imvula kaNkulunkulu
The rain of God is falling
Imvula kaNkulunkulu means “God’s Rain”. It is a prayer song, born in South Africa and now growing into an African campaign — one song, many prayers, and a continent calling on God for healing, peace and new life.
What is Imvula kaNkulunkulu?
Imvula kaNkulunkulu — “God’s Rain” — is a prayer song that was born in South Africa out of a burden for our country. It calls on God to pour out His rain of healing, peace, and new life over our land. Today, that prayer is growing into an African campaign. Together we are forming the Imvula Youth Choir, professionally recording and filming the song, and carrying this prayer across the continent through music, media and live ministry.
