Archbishop Thabo Makgoba - Confirmation, St Cyprian’s School
16 August 2009
Ephesians 5:15-20
Psalm 34:9-14
John 6:51-58 (Readings will be taken from the NIV)
May I speak in the name of the One God, Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer of Life.
Headmistress, educators and learners, families and friends – and especially Jazarra, Cloé-Marie and Jade, who are to be confirmed today – it is a great delight to be with you.
I am particularly relieved to be here, since last September I was prevented at the last minute from speaking at your Annual Service in the Cathedral, when I was summoned to the swearing in of President Motlanthe!
