What the heck, I'll be the first to post something in here...
I believe it was December 1993 (somebody correct me if I'm wrong) when Pres. Euvrard decided to take all the missionaries up to a resort up in the Drakensberg for Christmas - I believe the name of the resort was "Wagensdrift". That was an incredibly memorable trip for me! Aside from having all your previous companions and friends around, and being in the beautiful setting of the Drakensberg, we were able to play cricket, football, and generally spend some quality time outside relaxing and talking. We were also treated that night with some beautiful songs performed by a gospel choir from Madadeni which was incredible and were later chatted to by Pres. Euvrard who spoke about the 4th wiseman. A great spiritual evening! Afterwards we all stayed up late and told legendary mission stories. We got to spend the night in some barrack-like buildings. The next day we went to Giants Castle - a location in the 'berg where we could hike and relax. It was a wonderful "vacation" from our normal "labors in the field".
I'll try and scan a couple of pics as well. |
