Bongani in Tumbleweed



There is a new minister for a new church near Howick in a town called Tumbleweed. Brentwood United Methodist Church has helped with the building of the church and they came for a visit last weekend. We had the Bishop of our district, the Superintendent, the new minister and the Brentwood guests for lunch in the Hilton Methodist Church last Saturday. I am going to be the supervisor of Bongani and we hope to build close ties with what is now called the "Brentwood Methodist Church (of Tumbleweed). The photo's are of the Mission director of Brentwood UMC giving Bongani a few gifts to set him off on his ministry and the Pastor Ray Huckaby with the local chief in the new church building.

Well as a local of Howick (and maybe for the Hilton folks as well) we are all suburbs of this little patch of beauty called uMngeni. Tumbleweed is just on the outskirts of Howick, and it's on your left as you drive up the N3 towards the Howick / Midmar of ramp. I could post the satellite picture but don't have a clue how to! God bless. Charles
