The 2022 national census indicated that 85,3% of the population of South Africa are of the Christian faith. Given the “state in which South Africa is in”, should Christian leaders (irrespective of who they are or in which sector of the community they are), be accountable to, within the Christian value system, lead the change in South Africa?

Good evening, as we count down the next 18 days to the elections, we need for a moment to reflect on the collapsed building in George and think of the 81 people and their families who have been severely impacted and the uncertainty which at present the 33 unaccounted for people families are going through.
In the build up to the election we are hosting conversations with of the “smaller” political parties and those who are the more prominent “Kingmakers” who could be playing an impactful role in the political future of South Africa. The remaining conversations are on 14th May - the Referendum Party (CapeXit), 17th May the ACDP and - 24th May the Patriotic Alliance. Should you require further information kindly contact me.
On the 22nd May we will be hosting a conversation and workshop with Christian Leaders to address the topic “Standup and Be Counted” The 2022 national census indicated that 85,3% of the population of South Africa are of the Christian faith.
