It is with great pleasure that we welcome Shaneeze Dilgee (URCSA Lavender Hill) and Frikkie Marais (DRC Napier) on board of our Green Team. May you enjoy the energy and enthusiasm of our team and may the Lord use our input in various ways to help people to think GREEN and help to preserve our wonderful planet.
Shaneeze says, “Hi, my name is Shaneeze Dilgee. I am a proponent in the URCSA waiting to be called to a congregation.
“I am passionate about nature and love outdoor activities. Hikes, running, and swimming are some of the activities I enjoy. However, I also believe that nature should be preserved not just for our enjoyment, but also as a responsibility towards God and creation.
As part of the Green Team I want to create awareness of how preserving the environment is also a command from God. Our spirituality is not only practised on a Sunday in a building we call “church” but we experience our spirituality through all our senses involving nature.
Frikkie says, “I am Frikkie Marais. I am a minister in the DRC congregation in Napier, the gateway to the southern tip of Africa.
Surrounded by beauty, I am very conscious of the fact that not all is necessarily right regarding the way we treat creation.
“I believe that we have a great covenantal responsibility to honour and serve all forms of life as Gods’ royal priesthood. The church is called to be the primary agent to prophetically call on all of humanity to live life in reverence to the Creator and King by walking-each-other-home.
“I am privileged to be part of the Green Team’s initiative to join in God’s mission in this regard.”
