Archbishop Thabo Makgoba - Eucharist – George Diocese Pastoral Visit
29 April 2010
Eucharist Readings: Acts 13:13-25; Ps 89:1-2,19-27; Jn 13:16-20
Dear clergy and people of the Diocese of St George, may I speak to you in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, who died and who was raised to new life:
Alleluia, Christ is risen! We are risen, Alleluia!
In the middle of this Easter season, it may seem a little odd that the lectionary gives us a gospel passage from the height of the Passion – from the Passover meal that Jesus shares with his disciples before betrayal and crucifixion.
