St Cyprian’s will join millions of people from around the world in celebrating Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee.
“Queen Elizabeth has been a very stabilizing force across the world. She frequently visited South Africa in the days when she would travel often, and she has done incredible work for all Commonwealth countries,” said Father Dane Elsworth, Pastor of St Cyprian’s Church.
According to Father Elsworth, Queen Elizabeth is also the head of the Anglican Church. “The Queen is the head of the Church of England, an Anglican Church, and so we also look to her as the head of the Anglican Church.”
