What's
on this month?
- MACLA
( Matjhabeng Christian Leaders Assembly ):
28 Sept - 1 Oct
An assembly of Christian Leaders of our area to adress the
7 giants locally. Matjhabeng is our local municipal area
- Welkom. Odendalsrus, Hennenman,Virginia,Ventersburg, Allanridge.
The Sacla delegates came back last July and felt in their
hearts that we should bring the same experience they had
in Pretoria down to grassroots level ,here in our own area,
because we are facing the same giants.
The aim is to get the Christians together for one week 28
Sept - 1 Oct. during the school holidays to come up with
solutions to each and every giant. We also want to create
a platform for our next generation - to say to them that
we did try do something about these problems.We feel that
this is a Kairos time for Matjhabeng to even have a influence
in government and other institutions.
The venue is the Vista University( has a new name now)
Main speakers: Monday Night 27 Sept. Coenie Burger; Tues.
Esme Bowers, Wed. Bishop Bethlehem, Thursday Annanias.

- The
Million Leaders Mandate,
will see 1 million leaders trained and resourced in basic
leadership skills globally by 2008. The southern African
portion of this goal is to train 150,000 leaders! This will
be done by training 6,000 leaders through seminars in 12
cities, every six months, for three years. These 6,000 trained
leaders will then commit to go back and train 25 others.
This will see the exponential total of 150,000 leaders trained!
Do you see yourself as a leader? The Million Leaders Mandate
aims to make a leader out of you by a leadership development
process that focuses on three main areas: spiritual formation,
skill formation, and strategic formation. Do not miss the
