On 20 October 2022, the University of the Free State (UFS) Faculty of Theology and Religion will present the distinguished Tutu-Jonker lecture in honour of the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Prof Willie Jonker. These two theologians are well-known in South Africa for their emphasis on reconciliation, and the series of lectures is a tribute to their reconciliatory efforts.
This will be the first in-person Tutu-Jonker lecture since COVID-19 and the passing of Archbishop Tutu. The keynote speaker, Dr Lazarus Mokobake, Chaplain in the South African Defence Force, will deliver the lecture, themed: ‘Faltering resilience – a nation in need of conciliation’.
Registrations close on 14 October 2022.
UFS chamber choir well received at KKNK

Dit is absoluut beeldskone, hartskeurende musiek. … Waar ‘n mens gewoonlik niks vroeër as Bach oor Kersfees en Handel oor Paasfees kry nie, is Membra Jesu nostrl ‘n onverwagse geluk … Hou dadelik op met lees en gaan koop nou ‘n kaartjie!
(Willem Bester, KKNK KRIT, 27 Maart 2005)
‘n Ander juweel … was die Universiteit van die Vrystaat se Membra Jesu nostri deur Buxtehude. Dié siklus van sewe cantatas oor die kruisiging van Christus is bedrewe deur die studente uitgevoer, met talle hoendervleis-oomblikke.
