On Thursday morning, we had the wonderful privilege of having Bible Study with the Senior Adults at the home of Keith and Colleen. It is always a joy to meet with these precious “Advancing” people of God. We had a small group due to some being ill and not able to get out. The leader of the group, Brother Buddy Brownlee, was such a delightful man of God. He shared a short devotion on “giving” and then asked us to share a bit of why we were in South Africa.
This world truly is getting smaller all the time. As it turns out, we know Buddy’s cousin from long ago when we first came to South Africa to the small country of Transkei. His cousin, Bill Brownlee and his wife Gail owned a store in Idutywa which was about 20 miles from where we lived. They attended the small English language Baptist Church in Butterworth, where we lived. They were in a discipleship class Monte taught. Please keep these mighty prayer warriors in your prayers as they continue to advance in age, but not in spirit. They are still very useful and important to the Kingdom of Christ.
