1960 was a remarkable year for Africa, 17 African countries got their independence from colonial rule on that very year. It was also the year God Departed with Her Holy Host after six years (1954-1960) working as a Human amongst human through Her Holy Host. On December 25 1960, The Holy Host of God went to rest.
During the last days, God was teaching to some members of the congregation that many simply failed to follow Her teachings and hence would not recognize Her when She crossed over to the other side of the river. The crossing to the other side of the river was an analogy for Her return, that many would fail to recognize God when She returned. She also went on to say, "I have no grave on this earth and none will inherit Me (Handigarwinhaka) because this is Holy work, not wrought by flesh, My Children in Guta Ra Mwari."
One member of the congregation, Mr. Sagaresango got up and said he would not fail to recognize Her because God had saved his daughter, "mina ngizakwazi ngoba wangisindisela indodakazi yami, ngizabamba ijali kuzekube sekufeni, ngizabambelela ngizabalawe ekuphendukeni kwakho."He said he would hold on to the fringes of Her shawl, and would be with Her on Her return.
The Shawl he was referring to was that worn by the Holy Host at the time during service. Mr Sagaresango like many did not understand that God is a Spirit with no form and it was God the Spirit talking, not the human Holy Host they commonly referred to as "Mai Chaza."God the Spirit was the one who would return not Her Holy Host. The same mistake made by many Christians who still to this day, wait for the return of the Holy Host Jesus Christ to return to earth.
On December 25 of 1960 God departed with the soul of the Holy Host as had been foretold. The body of the Holy Host was buried at Kazangarare Guta at Zvimba communal lands in Zimbabwe. During the burial, people who stood by watching the burial from a distance saw the Holy Host Mrs. Chaza standing on a nearby hill, in Her complete Holy Attire. They called out to the members of the congregation who were conducting the burial ceremony to let them know the person they were burying was no longer in the coffin, but had risen and was standing on the hill. This fulfilled the declaration by God that, "I have no grave on earth."
God had promised members of the congregation that She would return after 40 days, " Ngemva kwensuku ezingamatshumi lamane ngiza liphendukela"and they were to wait for Her until that time.
