As the church do encourage all citizens including our members to take part in sports. Secondly, I wish to congratulate Reverend DM Mhlanga one of the church leaders in Estcourt for participating in this event.

We believe he will motivate us as the clergy to consider participating in sporting activities. Rev Mhlanga always participates in the Comrades Marathon and we are so grateful for that as the church.

Speaking to him after marathon, Rev DM Mhlanga disclosed to me that this year he wished to run/take part in Bible Marathon in Israel.

Going to Israel comes with costs, therefore we humbly plead to all Good Samaritans to assist him in making sure that his dream becomes a reality.

Lastly, as the church, we do encourage our members to live a healthy lifestyle by exercising and keeping their bodies healthy and fit.
