One of three banners made by our middle school youth

 Many thanks to Carol and Joanna O. for your help with this banner.  This one will remain at church and two similar ones will be given to our partner churches in South Africa.  Our middle school students did a great job making this.

South Africa Links

Northminster is in partnership with two churches in South Africa.  The M.P. Dube Church does not have a web site I can find.   The Mowbray Presbyterian Church is here.    From March 5 - 19 Nancy and Walk Jones will be in Cape Town and its suburbs leading leadership workshops for our partner churches and learning about Christianity in Southern Africa.

This blog will be a place they will post their impressions of the trip, our partners, etc.  If he can, Walk will upload a few pictures during the trip.

Trinity Presbyterian, Pensacola is in partnership with the J. L. Zwane church.    Please click the name of the church for their web site.

Here is a tourist site for Cape Town.    I need to read it, there is so much to learn.

thinking about my upcoming trip to South Africa

wow, I've not blogged in a while.  I'll have to remedy that. 

I want to start thinking out loud about my trip to South Africa and ways to use this blog on the trip, even doing some mobile blogging from my phone or via email.  I think I will have access to computers or even wifi from my phone, even if the phone doesn't work in S.Africa.  But I may also want a week or more away from email.
