Going in with my own pre-conceived ideas of the organisation it was indeed a humbling experience spending many hours in interviews and church services in the company of the women who make up the Mother‘s Union.

  • 2009 Synod Bishop's Charge
    FORTY-SEVENTH SESSION OF DIOCESAN SYNOD KWANZIMELA, 1-3 October 2009 THE BISHOP’S PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS 1. Preamble Ukristu uyiNkosi. Uyabusa. Christ is King. He reigns. “Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. I thank God, whom I serve...with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.” (2 Tim 1:2-3) In the name of God I wish to warmly welcome you to this Forty-seventh Session of Synod of the Diocese of Zululand. These few days will be hard work, requiring concentration and application but from the outset let us remind ourselves that we are not in this alone, that the Holy Spirit is the one who calls us together and who is present and active within and 1 among us. I am confident that, during the course of ths Synod, we will see and experience plenty of the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit, that is, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Gal 5:22). In the midst of the hard work, the debates, the conversations and, ultimately, the decisions we are going to make, let us not lose sight of the presence of God’s Spirit among us and let us rejoice in the signs of life, hope and holiness we see in each other. Let me begin by praising God and giving thanks to him for the ongoing love and support I receive from my family, my wonderful wife Nobelungu, affectionately known by many of us as uMa Dlems, our children and, the latest addition to the family, our grandchild, Renzo Nkanyiso.
