Photojournalism: Honorable Mention 2020 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Pastor Samuel Wainana heads the Melichizedek Church in Mombasa, Kenya. For several years now, he has also been an exorcist. During the Holy Mass every Wednesday, people with health problems are selected from the crowd by Samuel. Depression, bipolar disorder, suicidal thoughts and even HIV are “treated” in this way. People think it's caused by the devil. Ceremonies are held in the church with the help of parish members.
