Edit Template Edit Template Mpilo Foundation was a guest of the NGK Congregatio On Sunday, 27 October 2024, Mpilo Foundation was a guest of the NGK Congregation in Lelystad. Present on behalf of Mpilo Foundation were Berto Broeksema and Ellen and Albert Nijland. Christine Winter-Broeksema, sister of Berto, was the sermon reader on this (postponed) Micah Sunday. The theme of the Micah Sunday was: ‘Are we seeing? Looking through the eyes of the Maker’. Christine read a short sermon by Lucia Mambure from the Micah Sunday packet. Lucia Mambure is from Zimbabwe. She is married to Davis and with their four sons they live in the capital Harare. One of the sons has cerebral palsy. About him, Lucia wrote the book ‘Walking With My Son’. Lucia is one of Tearfund’s ‘inspired individuals’. Micah Sunday During the annual Micha Sunday, more than a thousand churches in the Netherlands reflect on a theme that touches on justice. Micah Sunday falls on the Sunday closest to World Poverty Day. So this year on 20 October 2024 and next year on 19 October 2025.(https://michanederland.nl/zondag) The NGK Congregation was well represented with over 100 people, including a good number of children. The proceeds of the collection will go to Mpilo Foundation. Immediately after the service, we received the very positive announcement from the OPA (Oud Papier Actie) committee that €500 will be deposited for Mpilo Foundation’s projects. Some private churchgoers also pledged a donation. Mpilo Foundation thanks the NGK Gemeente in Lelystad for the offered support of Mpilo Foundation’s work. And Albert and Ellen will report back in due course on the spending of the proceeds of the collection.
