Archbishop Thabo Makgoba - Diocese of Cape Town – Mothers’ Union Lady Day Service
26 March 2011
Isaiah 7:10-14
Romans 5:12-17
Luke 1:26-38
May I speak in the name of God – to whose service we are all called. Amen.
Dear people of God, dear sisters and brothers in Christ, dear members of the Diocese of Cape Town Mothers’ Union – I want to recall the angel’s greeting in Luke’s gospel - ‘Greetings, favoured ones! The Lord is with you!’
Wow - after three years of trying, it’s possible for me to be at the Lady Day service! Let me express my warm thanks to all those involved with this service – both from the side of the Cathedral, as well as from the side of the Mothers’ Union – and especially to our President, Mrs Onica Louw-Msutu, for all she has done, not only for today, but throughout the last year. Thanks also to your Executive for their part.
