The Zwelethemba community and the Comforters of True Excellence Ministries bid a heartfelt farewell to their cherished founder and Apostle, Paul N’kaya Ngouono.

His departure has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of those who knew him, resonating not only within his parish but across the broader religious community.

Apostle Ngouono, alongside his dedicated wife, Apostle Cynthia Yolisa, was an unwavering source of support and inspiration for the community, leaving an indelible legacy of selfless service and unyielding dedication. Apostle Ngouono’s ministry, the Comforters of True Excellence, stood as a radiant beacon of hope for the Zwelethemba community. His tireless mentorship in biblical studies has left an indelible mark on the spiritual tapestry of Zwelethemba.

The impact of Apostle Ngouono transcended the pulpit. Alongside his wife, he established Shammah Funerals in 2016, stemming from humble beginnings selling treats to schoolchildren.

Shammah Funerals became a beacon of compassion and accessibility, offering solace during families’ darkest hours. Beyond his spiritual pursuits, Apostle Ngouono demonstrated keen business acumen.

Through this enterprise, he directed resources towards various charitable causes, underscoring his commitment to uplifting those in need.

His passing leaves a void not only in the family but in the broader community, where his impact will resonate for generations.

Apostle Ngouono was more than a spiritual guide; he was a devoted family man. Alongside his wife, he served as a beacon of guidance for couples navigating the challenges of marriage. Their role as marital counselors exemplified their dedication to building robust, flourishing families within the Zwelethemba community.

Ngouono was laid to rest on Sunday the 24 September. He leaves behind his wife, three children and sister.

As Zwelethemba mourns the loss of a spiritual luminary, they are left with a lasting memory of a man who embodied the values of love, humility and benevolence, etching an indelible mark on the hearts of all who were privileged to know him.

The family would like to thank everyone for their unwavering support in this difficult time.
