Celebrating the Nations


Here in Muizenberg the communication adventure remains alive. Martial and Pam joined together with the staff and students at the Muizenberg base for the global YWAM Prayer Day that takes place every first Thursday of the month; the theme for this month was the Christian Magna Carta.

After the prayer time there was a celebration dinner at which more than 20 nationalities were represented. The celebration was marked with food from different nations across the globe, ranging from main meals to deserts. The food combinations were just amazing. Pam was not feeling too well, so had to enjoy the aroma without benefiting from the taste.
However, what she missed at the meal table she made up for on the dance floor: the meal was followed by a dance party, with performances from the YWAM kids.

Starting this weekend Pam is teaming up with Virmz Largo (staff from the Muizenberg base) for a mission conference at Tygerberg college campus, in the north of Cape Town. They will be exhibiting YWAM's work around Africa, sharing the platform with other mission organisations based in Africa. There will be many opportunities to hear what others are doing across the continent and to talk to students who are interested in missions opportunities.
