John Lee, Johannesburg – I never stop thanking God for the “spiritual jewel” that is The Southern Cross and its editor Günther Simmermacher. Yet, among friends and family, regular Mass-goers, there are many who never buy it. It saddens me no end.
I can honestly say I am “addicted” to it.
Thank you to Mr Simmermacher, and to Cecil Cullen of Alberton for his letter “How do we get people to read The SC?” (March 29).
I am convinced that if more of us were truly evangelical — knowing Jesus personally and not just about him — sales would increase proportionately.
Through my little “charismatic” gift of writing, I am able to witness for Jesus through The Southern Cross. I have made several friends (also enemies!) through these letters as a result, over the 30 years the Lord has used me.
Thank you, Lord, and The Southern Cross.
