WOMEN’S DAY 2025
Women’s Day, celebrated on the 9th of August in South Africa, is a special time to remember and honour the strength, courage, and role of women in society at large.
From a Christian perspective, this day reminds us of how God values women and uses them in powerful ways to bring about change and strengthen faith and hope in the world. In the Bible, we see many examples of faithful women, like Esther, who risked her life to save her people, or Mary, the mother of Jesus, who humbly accepted God’s plan for her life. These stories show us that God has also worked through women for His purpose.
On Women’s Day, we can also reflect on Proverbs 31, which describes a woman of strength, wisdom, and kindness. She is not only hardworking and caring, but also fears the Lord, and because of that, she is praised.
Historically, August 9th is also a reminder of the historic 1956 women’s march to the Union Buildings in Pretoria, South Africa, when thousands of women stood up for freedom and equality.
As followers of Christ, we are called to stand for justice and to love and support one another. So, on this day, we thank God for the women in our lives: our mothers, sisters, daughters, and friends.
We pray for their strength, peace, and purpose. And we also commit ourselves to creating a world where all women are respected, valued, and given the freedom to live out their God-given potential. Women's Day is a chance to celebrate and bless the women who shape your life.
USuku Lwabesifazane, olugujwa mhla ziyisi-9 kuNcwaba eNingizimu Afrika, yisikhathi esikhethekile sokukhumbula nokuhlonipha amandla, isibindi, kanye neqhaza labesifazane emphakathini wonkana. Ngokombono wobuKristu, lolu suku lusikhumbuza indlela uNkulunkulu abazisa ngayo abesifazane futhi abasebenzise ngezindlela ezinamandla ukuze alethe inguquko futhi aqinise ukholo nethemba emhlabeni. EBhayibhelini, sibona izibonelo eziningi zabesifazane abathembekile, njengo-Esteri, abafaka ukuphila kwabo engozini ukuze basindise abantu bakubo, noma uMariya, unina kaJesu, owamukela ngokuthobeka icebo likaNkulunkulu lokuphila kwakhe. Lezi zindaba zisikhombisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubelokhu esebenza nabantu besifazane ngenjongo Yakhe.
NgoSuku Lwabesifazane, singaphinde sicabange ngeZaga zama-31, ezichaza owesifazane onamandla, ohlakaniphile, nomusa. Akagcini ngokusebenza kanzima nokukhathalela, kodwa futhi wesaba uJehova, futhi ngenxa yalokho, uyadunyiswa.
Ngokomlando, umhla ziyisi-9 kuNcwaba futhi uyisikhumbuzo semashi eyingqophamlando yamakhosikazi yango-1956 e-Union Buildings ePitoli eNingizimu Afrika, lapho izinkulungwane zabesifazane zazilwela khona inkululeko nokulingana.
Njengabalandeli bakaKristu, sibizelwe ukumela ubulungisa, sithandane futhi sisekelane. Ngakho, ngalolu suku sibonga uNkulunkulu ngabesifazane ezimpilweni zethu: omama bethu, odadewethu, amadodakazi, nabangane. Sithandazela ukuthi babe namandla, ukuthula kanye nokufezeka kwezinjongo zabo. Futhi siyazibophezela ekudaleni umhlaba lapho bonke abantu besifazane behlonishwa khona, lapho baziswa khona, futhi banikezwe inkululeko nokuphila ngamandla abo abawaphiwe nguNkulunkulu. Usuku Lwabesifazane yithuba lokugubha nokubusisa abesifazane abalolonga impilo yakho.
