A Place Where Miracles Happen - Ngome Marian Shrine
Ngome Marian Shrine, a place of seven streams, in the heart of Zululand, South Africa is where many miracles have occurred. The Ngome Shrine, which has not only become one of the most popular places for pilgrims in South Africa but also a place where many people feel very close to God. Mary, Mother of God, said to Sr. Reinolda, a German Benedictine sister who was sent out to do missionary work amongst the Zulu people, I wish that a Shrine be erected for me in the place where seven springs come together. There I'll let My Graces flow in abundance. Many people shall turn to God....... Call Me Tabernacle of The Most High. Fr. Andrew Knott OMI, Deacon Norman Ellor and Pilgrim Jenna Harris, tell the story and share their experiences of Our Lady's message, and a few of the many miracles (some shown with actual photographs) that have occurred at Ngome Marian Shrine. The cause of the beatification of Sr. Reinolda May is underway as per official letter of Bishop Xolelo Thaddeus Kumalo of Sr. Reinolda the diocese of Eshowe in his letter dated May 1, 2017
This documentary was filmed and directed by Anton Herrington for Our Lady of the Tabernacle of the Most High.

Mtunzini & Surrounding Areas
Mtunzini - the jewel of the Zululand coast - overlooks the Mlalazi River winding lazily through pristine coastal vegetation on its way to the ocean.
The Zulu word emthunzini means a place in the shade but in the history of this beautiful small coastal town it refers specifically to the place under the milkwood trees near the Mlalazi River where the White Zulu chief, John Dunn, would meet with the tribal elders of the area.
Visiting the town today gives exactly that feeling - a place in the shade.
Blessed with a sub-tropical climate (humid summers and mild winters) and a high annual rainfall, Mtunzini - or The Village, as the locals often refer to it - boasts a clean, safe, peaceful and abundant environment with a stunning outlook over the Umlalazi Nature Reserve and the sea.
The whole town of Mtunzini was declared a Conservancy in 1995 and it is well-known for its commitment to the preservation of its natural heritage.
A grove of raphia palms beside the railway line is one of the few declared natural monuments in the country and is the best place to spot the rare Palmnut Vulture which nests close to the top of the palm.
From the time John Dunn chose Mtunzini as his special place for family gatherings, generations of residents have sought to preserve and enhance what is unique about Mtunzini's enviable setting.
The town boasts a variety of leisure activities - including a challenging 18-hole 71 par golf course, fishing, waterskiing, tennis, bowls and horse riding.
Mtunzini also boasts a range of accommodation establishments and restaurants.
Mtunzini is just a hop off the N2 - making this serene seaside village the ideal coastal base for exploring the nearby game reserves and cultural and historical attractions.
