Durban church engulfed in flames
Updated | By Suné du Toit
The Durban Christian Centre (DCC) was engulfed in flames on Tuesday evening.
Fire fighters were on scene at the church, popularity known as the Jesus Dome.
Rescue Care paramedic Garrith Jamieson said firefighters were struggling to extinguish the blaze.
"The entire dome itself is alight. There is a portion to the left that hasn't been affected yet, but the actual some part is alight," Jamieson said.
People took to social media to share photos of the blaze, showing the church almost completely burned down.
