Monday morning we left the hotel at 5am ugh! We landed in Johannesburg where Megan Baxter met us. She is the director of Theological Education by Extension college. What a wonderful warm hearted person. We went to the guest house, which was a very pleasant place and left our suitcases. It was chilly, Johannesburg elevation is over 5,000. We then visited the college and met the staff. This is a very impressive place. Craig Dumsmoire and Megan Baxter gave us a overview of this amazing program. They have many programs for folk wanting to serve the church, I am looking forward in sharing this amazing ministry with you.
We had lunch with Mike who edits l and writes books. He is presently putting together a spirituality book for the students
After lunch we went back to the school and Megan took us back to the guest house to rest for a couple of hours before we met again for dinner.
We went to a lovely place for dinner and ate with Megan, Craig, Archbishop Peter and his wife Jill who is also a clergy and is presently the chaplain for a high school. paul and I ate kingklip which is a wonderful south african fish, we had great conversations! This was one of the best days of our journey thus far. The photos are of the book store with Megan and an intern from Texas. The other photo is Megan with Craig the assistant administrator.
