Our gracious hosts in Africa
Picture above is the staff of Zebula who daily welcomes guests with an African medley of praise. Apparently the resort is owned by Christians.
Below left is Pastor Dirkie van der Spuy senior leader of Moreleta Park Association, one of the most respected church ministries in Pretoria from a Dutch Reformed background. Right photo is Esther van der Spuy wife of Dirkie.
Picture on left above is with Graham Power, Chairman and founder of The Power Group, a diversified construction, property development and civil engineering group.
Graham is also responsible for initiating the Global Day of Prayer in Cape Town that saw 45,000 Christians fill Newlands Stadium. It is today the largest prayer gathering movement in history. The movement is chronicled in the book "Not By Might, Nor By Power." Thank you so much Graham for hosting us and supporting the GKPN.
Other African hosts: At Boshoff, Victor Mokgotlhoa and Peter Pretorius. Thanks everyone. And a big thank you to GKPN's founder and prime mover Elias Dantas.
"You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God." 2Corinthians 9:11
My Comments Policy
While my site offers visitors the ability to converse, I have a few ground rules so that our conversations will remain civil and courteous.
1. You must register in order to leave a comment. I don’t entertain pseudo, anonymous or bogus individuals. This site is my home (it has a Home Page, get it). I don’t let strangers who don’t introduce themselves into my home.
2. I love questions. I love them because a lot of times they are similar to someone else’s questions and can even trigger other questions from others. Questions also keep us all sharp. This is also why I respond to them as best as I can and at the soonest possible time. I believe that group answering benefits more people than private email exchanges.
3. We don’t have to agree. Debates are welcome. However, whether it is with me or any other visitors of my site, my rule is this: disagree if you must but keep things civil. That’s just how I run my home, and you are a visitor here. No shouting; I have seen it done in writing. No cursing and no insulting.
4. I reserve the right to delete your comments. Like I said, this is my home. I do not have an obligation to publish your comments. As a human being, you may enjoy the freedom to express your opinions on your own site but not on mine. To be specific, I will delete your comments if you post content that is in my sole opinion: (a) snarky; (b) off-topic; (c) libelous, defamatory, abusive, harassing, threatening, profane, pornographic, offensive, false, misleading, or which otherwise violates or encourages others to violate my sense of decorum, civility or any law, including intellectual property laws; or (d) “spam,” i.e. an attempt to advertise, solicit, or otherwise promote goods and services. You may, however, post a link to your site or your most recent blog entry.
5. You retain ownership of your comments. I do not own them and I expressly disclaim any and all liability that may result from them. By commenting on my site, you agree that you retain all ownership rights in what you post here and that you will relieve me from any and all liability that may result from those posts.
6. You grant me the license to post your comments. This license is worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, and royalty-free. By posting comments on my site, you automatically grant me the right to store, use, transmit, display, publish, reproduce, and distribute your comments in any format, including but not limited to a blog, in a book, video, or presentation.
In short, my goal is to host interesting conversations with caring, honest, and respectful people. I believe this clear and simple comments policy will facilitate this.
