Hello MADCA Volunteers,

My time has come to say goodbye. It has been an honour and a pleasure to serve you during the past 19 months in Milang. You have shown me patience, friendship and acceptance to my quirkiness in my individual South African way!

I will miss you, however I take with me an enormous love for the country side, the people and the laughter we shared. Keep doing great work with open hearts.

I’d like to leave you with my reading of the day which I hold dear to my heart…

Why do you suppose I told you
that it’s more blessed to give than to receive?
Wouldn’t you think it would be more blessed
to be on the receiving end?
Oh, but hear Me today.You are on the receiving end when you give!
I want you to grab hold of this principle right now
so you never forget.
When you give from the heart,
directed by Me for My purposes,
you are really receiving.
When you give sparingly, worried about your little self
and your little needs, that’s exactly what you get back.
Little.
When you give as I give-bountifully, joyfully, richly-
that’s exactly what you’ll receive in return,
and the bountiful blessing return is yours!
Perhaps the question is, where you should give.
There are always those with the palms of their hands
waving at you in the face-so I tell you, listen to your heart.
When you’re thrilled with the pleasure of giving
there’ll be no room for coercion, duty, obligation, or guilt.
Let’s give together.

-Marie Chapian l Prov 11:25

This week we’ve been following the life of the MOSHCC and posting the activities that are happening within the community on our Facebook page.

This week is Community and Neighbourhood Centres Week and I have been taking photographs of as much as I can going on in the community. A few of the things that have been happening this week include: Stepping On, Crèche, the Oral History Class and Fibre Art.

Stepping On is an activity in which the people who participate enjoy an active hour of gentle and slow strength and balance exercises designed to help improve muscle strength. balance and bone density.

Crèche is open Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9:30 to 12:30 for 6-month olds to 5 year old kids. Fibre Art is an activity in which people come to learn new techniques with different fibres.

This week has also been busy with the Adult community I.T and iPad programs lead by Stuart Jones.

There are a lot of other activities happening too, these include: Cards, cycling, table tennis and more!
