Road closure announcement:

Anyone driving from the south peninsular side, Baden Powell is closed because of sand across the road. You can head up Prince George Drive instead and turn right on 5th Avenue then right on to Strandfontein.

Bishop Zack Niringiye reminds us that in the book of Amos we are being invited "to seek God so that we may live".

'You and i are being invited to change narratives. To shift the story. Injustices thrives and flourishes on distorted narratives.' (Bishop Zac) 'Justice originates in the dethroning of God.'
