Message from his Grace,
Archbishop Siegfried Mandla Jwara
s we step into 2026, let us celebrate what we accomplished together in 2025. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to provide love and care for orphaned, abandoned and neglected children … support to child-headed households … and blankets to those in need during winter.
You also contributed to the training of seminarians and support for priests, the maintenance of Mission vehicles, the building new churches, and sharing the teachings and practices of the Church.
Your generosity fuels the impact our work on the Zulu Missions; we couldn’t do it without you! Thank you for your loyal support throughout 2025.
The year ahead is a special one for the Zulu Missions because 2026 marks the 100th celebration of World Mission Sunday in October. The theme, announced by the Holy Father, is “One in Christ, united in mission.”
My wish for you in the year ahead is that you will continue to unite with others to help build the world we want for ourselves and the children who will inherit it from us.
I would also like to take this opportunity to convey my sincere condolences to all who have lost loved one during 2025. May their memory evoke, not only feelings of sadness, but also fond smiles and laughter.
Yours sincerely in Christ
+ Siegfried Mandla Jwara CMM
Archbishop of Durban
