Other Images from Durban

Pictures: 1) A Hadedas Ibis - a colorful, but annoying bird. It has an almost flourescent coloring on its wings, but it makes a sound that can wake anybody up; 2) Steve Thompson, missionary serving in Ballito (north of Durban) and teaching a class at the college; 3) Pastor Selvan Govender teaching at the college; 4) Steve Thompson giving some instruction; 5) Students at the college



Various Images from Durban Survey Trip





Pictures: 1) Students at Baptist Bible College of Kwazulu-Natal - this is a class related to Bible Teaching Methods; 2) The college library - 6,000 books and also many online services; 3) The ABWE Durban Team men praying together; 4) A Durban Taxi - colorful and fun to look at, but totally dangerous, often overloaded, no seatbelts and often driven by DUI drivers - don't take one! Many have put a name on the front or all over their taxi - This one is named "Nuclear Weapon" - perfect! - at the same time it's advertising "Stay Away From Drugs" - that's good; 5) Robert with Glenn Barnett. Glenn and Ame Barnett and their 4 children serve at Fellowship Baptist Church in Church Development and Compassion Ministries. Pray for the Barnetts as 2 of their children struggle with chronic asthma. Also, they need prayer for a new home to rent and new location for their hospice ministry.

Other Pictures of Durban, SA Trip

Pictures related to the future home of The Phoenix Fellowship: 1) Neighborhood around the property; 2) View from the property, a Mosque sits just on the other side of the pinkish building; 3) Pastor Selvan, Jason and Darryl at the property, this property was a neighborhood dump and has been cleaned up and the fence posts are up with the phases for building being drawn up now; 4) The Phoenix Fellowship Sign; 5) Pastor Selvan during taping of his presentation about Phoenix Fellowship's plans for ministry using the future building. Jason taped this presentation, but we are having trouble with some of the background sounds. We hope to be able to post this soon. Over Pastor Selvan's left shoulder and behind that huge pine tree sits a Hindu temple.
