The Anglican Church of South Africa has installed a new Archbishop. The new church leader, Reverend Thabo Makgoba, 48, is said to be the youngest person to be elected head of the 160-year-old Anglican Church in South Africa.
After his anointment by fellow bishops, including Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Makgoba pledged to work for peace, justice and reconciliation in a changing world. (Interesting, I though the church was there to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. As we can see Jesus Christ has no part in the Anglican Church because all paths lead to the same god, hence their attention to reconciliation amongst all religions ‘in this changing world’.)
President Thabo Mbeki was among the many church and political dignitaries who formally greeted the new Archbishop. Mbeki paid tribute to past Anglican leaders, and the church as whole, for their role in defeating apartheid.
