Archbishop Thabo Makgoba - ‘Cave Service’ at Modderpoort
9 August 2009
Romans 13:8-14
John 14:6-15
May I speak in the name of the one God, who loves us more than we can ever ask or imagine.
Dear Bishop Paddy and people of God of the Diocese of the Free State; dear Bishop Nicholas and friends from Blackburn; dear brothers and sisters in Christ; thank you once again for the invitation to share with you in this very special service.
Preparing to come here, I was struck by how apt it is that the feast of St Augustine of Hippo falls in August, our Month of Compassion.
For it was St Augustine who wrote that all of faith, all of the Christian life, could be summed up in this way: ‘Love, and do what you will.’
