The saving effect of the sacraments.

Priest Robin Alexander conducted our Sunday Divine Service 06 September 2026

Priest Grant Cleophas was called to serve along.

Bible Text:
1 John 5 vs 8 And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the
water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

Message: We receive salvation in Christ visibly by receiving the sacraments.

■ The divine Sonship of Jesus Christ is acknow-ledged by God the Father.

■ The Spirit, the water, and the blood point to the saving effect of the sacraments administered in the church of Christ.

■ The sacraments are necessary for obtaining salvation in its fulness.

After a beautiful Divine Service, we gathered together for a wonderful time of fellowship. Congregants, friends, families, and invited guests shared smiles, laughter, meaningful conversations, and, of course, something sweet to enjoy. It was a lovely reminder of the joy that comes from friendship, togetherness, and sharing special moments as one family. ❤️

Sunday Divine Service
16 August 2026.

Rector Gavin van der Westhuizen conducted our Sunday Divine Service.

Priest Glover was called to serve along.

Bible Text:
John 17 20-21 (excerpt)
I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will
believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one.

Message
God grants us oneness, and we do everything in our power to pre-
serve it.

Summary:
■ Jesus not only prays to
the Father for the dis-
ciples of that time, but
also for all those who will
come to believe through
their word.
■ The objective of Jesus’
prayer is the unity of all
believers. This unity is
founded upon Him and
is meant to be an
identifying feature of the
one church of Christ.
■ Oneness is a gift of God and a mission for humankind.

After today’s Sunday School lesson, our teachers took a special moment to personally greet each of our children. ❤️

A simple gesture, but a beautiful reminder that Sunday School is about more than just lessons—it’s about making every child feel loved, welcomed, and valued in God’s house. 🙏✨

We would like to wish all a blessed and peaceful week ahead.

Apostolicity

Sunday Divine Service
09 August 2026.

District Rector Bernard Scholtz conducted our Sunday Divine Service.

Priest Duncan September was called to serve along.

Message
Apostolicity is an identifying characteristic of the church of Christ.

Bible Text:
2 Corinthians 5 vs 20
Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God
were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf,
be reconciled to God.

Summary:
■ Jesus Christ sent out Apostles in order to authentically proclaim salvation in Jesus Christ.
■ The church retained its apostolicity even after the death of the early Apostles because the apostolic doctrine continued to be preached.
■ Apostolicity was fully restored with the renewed personal occupation of the Apostle ministry.

We would like to wish all a blessed and peaceful week ahead.
