Three weeks ago our whole group went to Magliesburg, just outside Johannesburg, for the annual YFC South Africa Staff Conference. The event was held at the training centre and it was so beautiful! Rolf, our Cape Town Centre Director, said the land was donated to YFC something like 20 years ago and it was just wilderness, no running water, electricity, but the National Director at the time had a vision and now 20 years later its so cool to see what that vision turned into! Here are some pics.....
This is what greets you as you arrive....so beautiful!!
This is part of the grounds and one of the conference buildings.....
and here are some of the vols from Cape Town at one of the training sessions, obviously enjoying themselves!! It was really a great time, from the 25 hour train ride, to the training session to the "fashion show" celebration at the end! It was cool to meet YFC workers from all over South Africa....the Centre Director in George is an American who has been in South Africa for 30 years! I can't imagine!!
