As the term draws to an end.....
We are at the end of our second term of 2011 and as usual this is an eventful and busy time as all the schools come to an end and the outreach teams prepare to go to their different destinations. On Wednesday night I attended the final presentation of the Humanities and International school students research projects. They each had ten minutes to present the research on the topic of their choice that they had been working on throughout the school. Last night we commissioned the BCC (Bible Core Course) students as they finish their three months lecture phase and for the first time on the base this specific school is planning to go on outreach to apply and impart that which they have learned during their lecture phase. They will be going to Mozambique for four weeks to work in a town called Xai Xai. Then we also have the TDTS (Troubadour Discipleship Training School) that ended their lecture phase this week and within the next 10 days the three different student teams will be leaving to Kenya, Mozambique and the Western Cape for their outreach. For now the base is quieting down, getting ready for the third term that will start on the 3rd of July.

African Drums, surrendering to Jesus and enjoying God's presence.
Starting with an African drum presentation led by one of our staff members from Congo, last nights Community meeting started with an excitement and expectation to meet with God. And we were not disappointed. We had a great time in God's presence during worship and as we waited to hear from God. He spoke to us about living our life in surrender to Jesus. There is only one way to have a fulfilled and blessed life and this comes by following His principles. This theme was built on by Portia, our speaker for the evening from Zimbabwe, and currently one of our staff members. Radical obedience, waiting on God and surrendering to Him were some of the highlights of her message. Below is a short video clip of part of the drum presentation.The drummers are all students from our English Language school.
