A sermon preached by Archbishop Thabo Makgoba at the 160th Anniversary Celebration of St Paul’s Church, Bree Street, Cape Town:
Readings: Acts 26:9-23 , Ps 67, Galatians 1:11-24, Mark 10:46-52
May I speak in the name of God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Amen.
Let me start by congratulating you on 160 years of fruitful ministry, witness and service to God in this place.
On Thursday we commemorated the conversion of St Paul. What a colourful history St Paul had, and the cover page of your service booklet gives us a flavour of the colour you reflect.

Archbishop's tribute to the late Hugh Masekela
On behalf of the Anglican Church, and on my own behalf, I extend our condolences to Hugh Masekela's nearest and dearest family and friends.
Hugh Masekela's legacy is that of an inter-generational institution, someone who across generation after generation articulated our people's experiences and reflected our evolving history through music.

To the Laos - To the People of God – On the Feast of the Epiphany
Dear People of God
The Feast of the Epiphany is so special but here at home in Southern Africa it comes in the middle of our summer holiday and most parishioners are away. We still celebrate it of course, even if we do so on the Sunday following.
This year I send you, our parishioners and others who might read this, a short message wishing you good health and renewal as we celebrate the feast of the manifestation of our Lord to all people. May God manifest himself in our lives and wherever we live and work.
