The Nigerian Diaspora is now world-wide, and when Yoruba travel,
they take with them their religious organizations. As a member of
the Cherubim and Seraphim church in London for over thirty years,
anthropologist Hermione Harris explores a world of prayer, spirit
possession, and divination through dreams and visions. Through
their religious practice, church members enlist the Holy Spirit to
defend themselves against witchcraft and evil spirits, and make a
success of their lives. Although the new Nigerian 'Born Again'
Pentecostals in Britain turn away from C&S ritual, Harris
argues that they too are engaged in the search for spiritual power.
