The Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town, Thabo Makgoba, has sent his condolences to the family of Archbishop Emiretus Desmond Tutu following his passing on Sunday.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu reacts after receiving his coronavirus vaccination in Cape Town, South Africa, May 17, 2021.Archbishop Emeritus Desmond TutuIn a statement, Archbishop Makgoba says, “While we mourn his passing, as Christians and people of faith we must also celebrate the life of a deeply spiritual person whose alpha and omega – his starting point and his ending point – was his relationship with our Creator. He took God, God’s purpose and God’s creation deadly seriously.

“He believed totally that each one of us is made in the image of God and ought to be treated as such by others. This belief was not reached through celebral contemplation; it arose from his faith and was held with a deeply-felt passion. He wanted every human being on earth to experience the freedom, the peace and the joy that all of us could enjoy if we truly respected one another as people created in the image of God,” added Makgoba.

Makgoba adds that the Anglican Church in Cape Town will make the necessary funeral and memorial arrangements.This entry was posted on 26 Dec 2021,10:15AM at 10:15 AM and is filed under
