November 6, 2025
The St John’s Faith Mission community is mourning the passing of Archbishop Julius Tjizee Hoveka, who was ordained just months ago as the second Archbishop of the Father Tjijombo St. John’s Faith Mission, following the death of Archbishop Petrus Tjijombo in 2023. His short but impactful leadership united congregations across Namibia and the SADC region, ushering in a period of renewal for the church. Desert FM spoke to church spokesperson Uazenga Ngahahe to reflect on Hoveka’s life, legacy, and the profound loss felt by the faith community.
