Archbishop sends prayers and condolences after KZN tornado

To God’s People in the Diocese of Natal, and to Bishop Tsietsi,


The TV coverage of the wreckage left by the tornado in your Diocese has shocked and devastated me. Weather patterns are definitely changing and whether or not we agree that we face a climate crisis, the changes are hitting God’s people, more especially those who haven't the resources to mitigate the severe consequences on their lives.


I reassure you of my prayers and condolences, and those of our whole Church, for the relatives and friends of those who died, for those who were injured, and for those whose property was destroyed. I appeal to our parishioners who were not as badly affected to please assist those who have suffered the most.


Be assured of our love and prayers


God bless


Archbishop Thabo Makgoba
