On the 25th July 1993, four operatives of the Azanian People's Liberation Army (APLA), the armed wing of the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC) attacked St James Church in Kenilworth, Cape Town, during a Sunday evening service. Approximately one hundred congregants were inside the Church. During the attack, the congregants were fired on with automatic weapons and two hand grenades were thrown into the Church. Eleven members of the congregation died and fifty-eight were injured. This research explores the intra- and inter-personal tensions within the testimonies of survivors on the process of forgiveness and reconciliation. Themes include: the amnesty application by the APLA cadets to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC); personal responses to trauma; memories of the event; Christian beliefs in context of personal trauma; congregational mapping; political violence and the public and personal processes of forgiveness., Pol2.06.mp3: Part 2 of 2 ; 01:03:47 min. ; interview 6 of 6
