AN AFRICAN BALL

Ball 1
Ball 2

The campus ministry had a fantastic evening ball at the University of Johannesburg, Soweto campus.  Both brothers and sisters looked fabulous in their African attire.  It was clearly evident that the sisters went to lots of trouble to plan their outfits for the evening!  The décor was stunning and the food delicious and tasty.  Most people went for second helpings.

 

The evening was amazing - everybody enjoyed the music, food and fellowship. Although the ball started a few minutes late, Nhlanhla and Busi rocked the show and kept the guests entertained. The entire campus ministry was represented: Pretoria, Central, Potchefstroom, Northwest and obviously the host “Soweto region” were all under one roof. Fortunately (for the singles ministry) and unfortunately (for campus) we had to bid farewell to some of our fellow campus members who will be joining the singles “working class” in the new year. Apart from the music entertainment, there was live poetry and singing by some very talented people.

 

Amazingly, by the grace of God, the Pretoria Campus ministry which had less than 5 members at the beginning of the year has grown in numbers by more than 10 members.  Now that was encouraging to see!

 

As dinner came to an end, it was party time and everyone got onto the dance floor.  People were so photogenic - it looked as if we were at the Oscars or Grammy awards! A memorable evening was definitely had by all. What can I say?  Campus – you guys rock!
