Each week, Mandisa calls out with her congregation in the Te Deum: 
'We praise you O God: we acclaim you as Lord. All creation worships you: the Father Everlasting.'

Each week, it reminds her of her calling as a steward entrusted with a great treasure. 

In her South African home, Mandisa sees climate change hitting hard, particularly during the rainy season. She sees African countries suffering the effects of climate change, while their own carbon emissions remain low. It motivates her to speak up against injustice caused by environmental degradation. 

Mandisa is fighting for justice – and to inspire others to do the same. She works through some conventional channels, and some that are less conventional. 

Mandisa organises litter clean-ups and championed a motion banning single-use plastics in the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. She creates momentum through social media influence too. 

It all takes place within Africa’s Green Anglicans movement – an Anglican Overseas Aid partner. Your support enables Mandisa to call for justice in her own context – and many others to do the same. 

Mandisa is living out the Christian calling to steward God’s precious creation. The words of Psalm 24 drive her: 'The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it.'
