Africa: Called to the nations

This letter marks the last one I will write while still actually in South Africa. Our stay is coming to a close and my final letter in November will serve as a reflection on our time here.

This month, I will provide a few thoughts on how we have found our winding-down time – and on a recent trip.

Originally, we were only meant to be here for 12 months to serve the church and to soak up as much as we can. However, the opposite seemed to occur! Which in my experience as a Christian, is normally the way God works! Very quickly we realised that we were to train, serve and bless others rather than the reverse. And we wouldn’t have wanted it any other way!
