At 7 a.m., we are meeting with alums and current Regent students in South Africa for breakfast. We anticipate a handful, and are stunned to find nearly 50 eager, bright faces smiling back at us as Karen and I enter a gleaming, new, modern restaurant inside Moreleta Park Dutch Reformed Church. After a brief greeting, five of them share with the group their experience with Regent. As has happened countless times over these last three years, we listen to story after story that related things like, “Regent changed my life;” “I have never worked so hard at something I loved so much;” “The program was the epitome of professionalism and excellence.” We gloried in God’s goodness, and prayed with these young leaders and thought about how the Lord would use their leadership to bless South Africa and other nations.
At 8 a.m., Dr. Bekker and I join John Jones (by now a full member of our family) and spend the next four hours completing our two day conference—the Lord touches more than 700 lives over the two days, and as we leave Moreleta, we know that much of Regent is left behind to continue to serve the Lord.
