Impact Leadership Camp


After a few difficult weeks of MPD, it was FANTASTIC to be able to come home to Grahamstown for our annual leadership camp. Really wonderful to see everyone, and be so overwhelmed by all the love! It was an outstanding weekend of teachings, focussing mainly on our vision as a church. I found that it was so useful for me – being reminded of what we do and why we do it. It felt like an injection of faith, and an extra push to go out and get on with raising MPD so that I can get back and get down to doing what we do :o)

Our vision is this:

·         Discipling leaders
·         Planting churches
·         Reforming nations

Isn’t that exciting?! What we’re doing on Rhodes campus is literally having an impact on the nations! And on many generations to come! Getting really excited about this again :o) What was also super-exciting about it was realising... THIS IS MY JOB! Whoohoo! Usually on a camp like this, part of me is thinking about he work that needs to be done when I get home – things to write, essays to mark... but this time, about halfway through the camp, I stopped and thought to myself, “Hey, wait a minute! This is my job. I LOVE doing this, and it’s actually my JOB! So cool ;o)
