Today we went through to Klapmuts near Paarl to visit a friend who had been my Rector’s Warden for many years. Our friendship stretches for over thirty years and it was good to see him again. We met at a restaurant that is called The Pot Belly. I checked through the menu and settled for […]
In leaving Muizenberg this morning we visited family for about 30 minutes. They received us warmly with hugs and coffee. The fellowship was sweet. Then we had lunch with beloved friends of at least 40 years. They too welcomed us with hugs and a light lunch. Together with them we went to their daughter and […]
This morning after our online Church Service I went to a mall to purchase KFC and Pizza as our small family were coming over for lunch. We decided to do a finger lunch with chicken, pizza, meat balls, carrots, beans, a host of other finger greens, cheese, rolled pancakes, samosa, etc. Naturally the chicken and […]

Are you able to share a salvation testimony with others? Is it necessary to be able to remember all these things? Yesterday we […]
There are those who are of the opinion that only those who are articulate, educated, good looking and from well-bred families may enter the Christian Ministry and be successful.
