Anglican Week


Where would one begin after such an inspirational week? I consider myself blessed with prestigious quantity of information that you wouldn't just get on a normal day. I am grateful. The experience was worthwhile and more beneficial to me professionally, personally and it definitely strengthened my spiritual being.
If day one is thought of being ill at ease, where everyone is quiet and trying to figure out who is who and how they are then it means we never had one, because we all clicked on the very moment we got there, by the time we got our name tags it was already too late.
It only takes a smile to make relations; it gets even better when we have the same prospect. Diocese of Cape Town internship program was exciting though it required focus, dedication as well as promptness.
I learnt so much about how we young people need to approach the world and troubles that we encounter on a daily basis more especially in church. We have quite a number of youth structures from parish level to provincial. However we are not aware of the need to prepare and encourage leaders on how they should approach spiritual and personal harms, to be able to counsel one another, protect and love. This is how the topic Group dynamics was introduced to us, a skill every young person has to acquire.
It is apparent that we are unique and we need to appreciate that we are blessed with different characters’ to carry out a special purposes that God has placed within each of us, however we have something common, engaging in the word of God, proclaiming the Gospel of Christ and to develop mature Christians not for the church only but for the society at large, thus we need to hold each other’s hands, communicate and be willing to learn and listen to one another.
