CAPE TOWN - Archbishop of Cape Town Thabo Makgoba has encouraged South Africans to take back their power this Christmas.
The archbishop led a Christmas Eve service at the St George's Cathedral in Cape Town on Tuesday night.
The midnight mass is the first Christmas service to mark the birth of Jesus Christ.
Archbishop Makgoba told congregants that the Christmas message can empower everyone to break their silence and reclaim what has been taken.
"It empowers us to reverse the old order so that we too share in the miracle of a new beginning of new birth. Note the small but significant word the angels use when they proclaim that they bring good news of great joy for all the people, not just some, but all the people."
