I had the privilege of attending a traditional farm labourers' New Year service. These services take place all over South Africa, until midnight on New Year's Eve. I took this photo of a younger woman (my sister-in-law, in African terms) reading Scripture to an older woman by candlelight.
The service was led by a Church elder, and included much input from the congregation, and rousing singing. Married women covered their heads. Children attended, too.
OBSERVATION: I would characterise the message(s) as Calvinistic: the proof of your election will be in your living in 2015.
