In a poignant morning gathering, Malibu Village Congregation experienced a profound divine service led by Shepherd Cedric Hagglund, the District Rector of Kuils River District.
Drawing inspiration from Matthew 28:18, the Shepherd prepared the congregation for the upcoming divine service for the departed. The choir's heartfelt rendition of "I Will Not Let Thee Go" touched the hearts of all present, while the District Rector emphasized the importance of inward reflection and assigned the congregation the task of reading 1 Corinthians 15.
The service became a transformative moment, reminding attendees of the impermanence of life and the significance of honouring those who have departed. The congregation left with a renewed sense of purpose and gratitude, committed to cherishing memories and strengthening their faith.
In a world characterized by constant change, the divine service at Malibu Village Congregation served as a powerful reminder of the comfort and support found within faith and compassionate fellowship. Through heartfelt words, melodic hymns, and a call for introspection, the Shepherd invited the congregation to navigate life's uncertainties with unwavering conviction, fostering a deep connection with their spiritual roots.
