"Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favour with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
“I am the Lord's servant,” Mary answered. “May it be to me as you have said.” Luke 1: 30-31, 38
The Feast of the Annunciation (25 March) is a special day of prayer and thanksgiving for the Mothers’ Union worldwide. Lady Day, as it is also known was held on Saturday in the Parish of St Matthews, Beaufort West. Mothers traveled from across the Diocese to attend Lady Day and it was such a blessed day to spend time with the members. A heartfelt thank you to Rev Joanne Claassen and her parish for hosting a very successful Lady Day. Our gratitude also goes to the Clergy & their Spouses, as well as the Anglican Women's Fellowship Diocesan President, for their support on this special day
As part of our GBV awareness campaign, the MU members held a picket, highlighting the devastating effects of domestic violence on families.
We are grateful that everyone safely returned home after Lady Day and thank God for traveling mercies. Until next time, be blessed.
