King's Business - 1969-03

Africa Enterprise, the interdenomina­ tional team of young laymen from South Africa and North America, are continuing their first major project beyond the borders of South Africa. In response to an invitation from churches in Nairobi, Kenya, they are leading the Nairobi churches’ mission “Crossroads,” which finishes after Easter, 1969. Early in De­ cember the leader of the Africa Enter­ prise Team, MICHAEL CASSIDY, left to

assist with this program and to address a number of pastors' seminars. During the month of February a series of large meetings was arranged by the Nairobi churches. The speakers were Michael Cassidy (right) and FESTO KIVENGERE, of Uganda. Radio Station HCJB, in Quito, Ecua­ dor, recently celebrated its 37th anni­ versary. Highlighting the occasion was a three and one-half hour television pro­ gram on HCJB’s Channel 4 which fea­ tured high-ranking government and civic figures, musical groups and interviews with the station’s leaders. Other special observances included an extended radio presentation under the direction of HC­ JB ’s completely indigenous Spanish De­ partment. The ninth annual Graduate School lec­ tureship at Wheaton College in January had as its theme "Old Testament The­ ology and Eschatology.” DR. PIETER A. VERHOEF, professor of Old Testament at Stellenbosch Theological Seminary, Re­ public of South Africa, was the speaker. Mount Hermon Christian Conference Center has prepared brochures and ap­ plications for 1969 Student Summer Staff positions. According to REV. RICH­ ARD J. DOSKER, assistant director of the Mount Hermon Association, special­ ists are needed as senior counselors, as workers at waterfront, kitchen, fountain, day camp, youth direction, office, and recreation, as well as helpers in the food service, housekeeping, and grounds de­ partments. Counselors, who are confident Chris­ tians and have completed at least one year of college, will be needed for full- summer counseling ministries both at Redwood Camp and Ponderosa Lodge. Those interested should write to Rev. R. J. Dosker at Mount Hermon, Calif. 95041.
