From South Africa-
Africa's first female Anglican Bishop, Ellinah Wamukoya of Swaziland says she doesn't plan to introduce any radical change in the Anglican Church. Wamukoya was enthroned in Manzini, Swaziland this month. This was days before the Church of England voted not to allow female bishops. The mother of three and grandmother of five believes that she'll be able to do her work as archbishop and also spend time with her family.
"It's not easy to balance to be a women working and also running a home because before I became a priest I was working for the municipal council of Manzini for quiet a long time and still then had to juggle my plates and balance the two lives, its not easy it takes a lot of courage. It takes a lot of strength to do that."
Wamukoya's immediate task will be to oversee 42 reverends of the Church both spiritually and in financial management.
