WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY 2024 – MOTHERS UNION IN THE DIOCESE OF LESOTHO

Mothers Union in the Diocese of Lesotho had planned to commemorate World Environment Day on the 9th instead of 5th June 2024 as it fell within week day. Despite the freezing cold and snowy week, the St. Mary and John Parish in Maseru, had a session on the theme “Land, Restoration, Desertification and Drought Resilience” (translated in Sesotho), followed by comprehensive cleaning campaign of the church’s surroundings, de-weeding their existing flowering lawn and preparing soil for the additional new lawn. They appreciated the teamwork and unity brought by this day. They sung while working and shared their homemade meal afterwards.
