emerging leaders!

break out into small group work

it's been a whilst since we updated the blog and we are thankful to report that things have calmed down since the last posts. in fact since myself and maz returned from our break in england i have been very busy in the local community rallying local leaders to attend a well timed and aptly named 'Leadership for Hope' training session.

are you on the front or back foot?

as i type we have just drawn to a close day two of the three day course which we are hosting in the local community hall with the programme being given by trevor and jane waldock from the charity 'emerging leaders', who work with various partners including 'world vision' around sub saharan africa.

'performance' equals 'potential' minus 'interference'!

it has been amazing to see the local community come along and support this mind changing training session which is looking at encouraging everyone to consider themselves as a leader, whether that be in the home, at the work place, or within their local street or town.

leadership starts with yourself and this wonderful training in enabling people to see that they can write a different story for their own lives and help those around them succeed in being the answers to some of those tough questions, many of which were being asked during the strike action which recently overwhelmed our small town.

we are incredible grateful to trevor and jane, who will be staying with us at the village of hope for the next few weeks as they use us as a base for further travels around the western cape, for coming to share this valuable training with members of our community and we thank God for the connections that have resulted them in being here with us.
