Abstract
Migration in South Africa happens in two ways, forced and voluntary. Migrants hope to create new communities in their adopted countries. These communities are expected to enable people to find a new home, refuge, peace, love and justice and most important space to practice their religion, so that their experiences of life is complete even though they are in a foreign land. Among the migrants, a number of them are religious in one way or the other and their movement affects religion both in the country of destination and the country of departure. Religion continues to be a significant social force in South Africa. Churches become an integral part of these new communities as refugees arrive with their own spiritualties and seek to adapt them in their newly found communities and homes in a foreign land, across the borders of their countries of origin.
