Regional leadership gathering for YWAM Southern Africa

This past weekend I had the privilege to attend the annual regional leadership gathering for YWAM Southern Africa in Bethlehem in the Free State. It was great to see everyone again and to hear their stories. Many of the attendees have been on our base at some time or another and seeing them again is always a great experience.  There were 20 different ministries/bases represented at the meeting. The time was well spent as we listened to God's voice and tried to follow His leading throughout the weekend meetings. The highlight of the weekend was giving each ministry an opportunity to share where they are at and what are their needs. The rest of the leaders there then had the opportunity to minister and pray for them. It was exciting to see so many new and young leaders attending and to hear about their pioneering journies that they are on. Apart from South Africa there were also representatives from Mozambique, Swaziland, Botswana and Lesotho. Thank you to the Bethlehem team for their great hospitality and hosting us in such a fantastic way.
