The first week has been both thrilling and exhausting. Never a dull moment and never a space on the schedule. Today was a day where we split a bit as a group. I was invited to speak at a breakfast in Benoni, and Clint traveled with me there. It was great to see so many of the people Joyce and I met in March. there were past consultants and past clients, and it was so good to see them.
 
I did my best to speak towards changing paradigms and moving beyond the hurts of life. It was well received, but I saw some men go cross-eyed when I mentioned that the Lord has and will ordain women to lead businesses, churches, and nations. It was a hit for the ladies for sure, as many of them have been pressed down or silenced in their past, in their homes and their churches. It is time for the Kingdom where Spirit led people areneither Greek nor Jew, male nor female, slave nor free man. Afterwards, Clint and I had time to fellowship and minister to others. We left about 12:30PM to catch up with the others at the Apartheid Museum.
 
We were blessed to have Karabo, a consultant with Equip, be our driver and tour
guide for the tour through the museum. She also had little Karabo, who is a daughter that her mother and her had recently sdopted. The museum was incredible with raw footage snd such. I had heard so much, but seen very little until the museum, conscerning Apartheid and all the pain, suffered by so many.
 

We then went to have authentic African food at a place called Moyos. It was a real treat.They had servers in African wears and also a live band that played incredible music from many parts of Africa. We were able to dine with consultant Dave Porter and his wife Sarah, Jessica Pillay, a client.in this venture after partnering with me on the last venture in March here. We also had Karabo, another SA consultant join us. And finally we had Brenda de Charmoy join with us.She is also a former consultant, now a client. 
 

We had great food and  we also went as a group onto the dance floor and tried to keep up with th Africans. We sure were a site to see, but we had so much fun. We will go to church with Brenda in the morning. Thanks for supporting us in prayer.
