By Religion-A United Methodist Church evangelist has collapsed and died in front of the congregation.

Norest Nyakudanga tragically collapsed and died while delivering a sermon in Highlands on Tuesday night.

He was 65.

The incident was witnessed by congregants both in person and on Facebook, including members from St Peters Chitungwiza.

One congregant described the scene in a WhatsApp message, saying Nyakudanga had been in good spirits, even dancing before the sermon began.

During his message, he spoke about the negative and divisive nature of recent church discussions.

As he continued, he faltered, tried to steady himself at the pulpit, and collapsed.

Eyewitnesses believe he may have passed before hitting the ground.
