KwaThema – Elderly members of Ratanang Elderly Organisation took it upon themselves to clean the Holiness Union Church as part of their annual celebration on Monday.
As part of their birthday celebration, the centre gave a helping hand to improving the lives of those in their community.

“The church was generous enough to allow us to hold our weekly meetings for free, the least we could do is give back to them.
