Community impact Conference in Kempton Park

Graham Power and I flew to Johannesburg this morning where he was invited to address a few hundred business people on community transformation and development. I also had a chance to speak about the 'unashamedly ethical' campaign, see http://www.itnafrica.com for more info.

It was wonderful to have a chance to challenge the attendants of the conference, business people, a few mayors, a head of some local prisons, and some pastors and ministers.

The emphasis is upon helping these persons to live and work in a manner that establishes God's Kingdom rule of justice, provision, care and grace in practical ways (feeding, educating, developing and uplifting persons). We had a wonderful response to the challenge with many of the people signing the pledge form and commiting themselves to an 'unahsamedly ethical' lifestyle.

We're visiting a few of our own projects now (Serengeti, our R21 road project etc.) this afternoon, then we fly back to Cape Town tonight.

A great day of creating strategic partnerships between 'pulpit' and 'marketplace' ministries for the purpose of God's Kingdom.
