Spring.. Yay

This last weekend Louise and I hosted a young family, Donovan, Caryn and Kylie. They came to meet the Church where we are considering calling Don to be our Associate Pastor. They are a very nice family and both Louise and I are very excited and hopeful that God will call them to our Church. At this time they are living in East London, Don clearly has a passion for theology and for reaching out to people with the Love of God. He preached at both the morning and evening services and was very warmly received by the Church. Should God call them to our Church, I'm sure I will learn a lot from Don as I continue on with my own studies towards the Pastorate. I would ask you to join us in praying that God will make clear His will to Don, his family and to us the Church.

The weekend also saw Louise and I take a trip out in my buggy, we went to the Gamtoos river mouth not far from Jeffreys Bay. It’s a really nice place that has a nature reserve and sand dunes. We saw various birds but the highlight was seeing some whales just off the coast. I think they were right whales. We saw them slapping there tails and having all sorts of fun. Sadly they were just a little too far out for me to get pictures but they are often found in the bay so maybe some other time I’ll be fortunate enough to get some pictures.

The weather on Saturday was great and as the first day of spring, we had to mark it by getting out and doing something nice, we certainly did that.
We both hope to return to the Gamtoos for a camping trip one day, I for one look forward to that.
