Karen and I are settling in for the night a few minutes before midnight, and recounting some of the remarkable blessings of the Lord for this day in South Africa:
Nearly 400 coming to tonight's opening session of our "Christian Leadership to Change the World Conference" in a large Dutch Reformed Church in Pretoria.
Over two dozen attendees raise their hands to signify that they are current Regent students or alums.
Meeting with "Regent South Africa" grad Steven Ward, who introduced us to Pan-African Christian Church in Kenya--who would like Regent to offer doctorates in Leadership on their campus.
Over 100 coming to hear us speak at a Christian Business Breakfast at "Doxa Deo" church, where 44 students are enrolled in Regent Leadership and Graduate Business Program. They beseech us to consider offering undergraduate business courses.
A church that is teaching leadership and using one of Dr. Bruce Winston's books as the text--"Dr. Bruce," as he is called, is loved and revered by so many here.
Meeting with Michael Cassidy, called by some "The Billy Graham of South Africa," and hear him share about the tremendous need for mentorship in this region: "Carlos, many are being saved, but they are longing for mentors to help them know the Lord and His purposes for them more fully."
Thank you, Jesus, for the work you have done, are doing, and will do here through Regent--to you be the glory.
