CAPE TOWN – Anglican Archbishop Thabo Makgoba has used part of his Christmas message to urge the public to help society’s most vulnerable citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic.
They include the elderly and disabled.
Makgoba delivered his Christmas Eve Mass sermon at St. George’s Cathedral in Cape Town on Thursday night.
The Anglican archbishop said the story of the pandemic was the story of the disease, with nearly a million cases and more than 25,000 deaths in South Africa alone.
He said it was the story of more than three million people mired in unemployment in a country already plagued with unemployment.
He said that perhaps most criminal of all, the story of the pandemic was one of corrupt people blatantly stealing resources that were meant to benefit the poor.
