Church celebrates centenary

Uniting Lutheran Church in Southern Africa, based in Tsenelong Section, celebrated its centenary on Saturday last week.

The centenary of the church marks an important part in its history.

According to the church’s Presiding Elder, Mr Franz Tau, the church expanded and has many branches in communities around the country.

“Our branch at Tsenelong has more than 12 000 members since it was build in 1985. I am pleased with the progress of the church,” he said.

Mr Tau added that they are faced with the challenged of finding a bigger venue so that they can build headquarters.

“I would like to thank all the church members and people who made the centenary wonderful. I am encouraging church members to look forward to building the church more in the coming 100 years,” he added.

A service on Sunday rounded off the centenary celebrations.
