Flood Ravages Namibia
Dear
Friends
Just
to let you know that Mariental, the capital of the
Hardap Region in the Republic of Namibia, and host of
the Midyear Convocation 2006, experienced a major flood
last weekend (Friday, February 24th, 2006 –
Monday, February 27th, 2006). The entire
lower town to the west of the railway line was
completely flooded when the inflow to the Hardap Dam,
the largest water reservoir in Namibia, increased its
volumes to 110% full. The sluices were opened, and that
caused a breakdown to electricity, the sewerage system,
loss of lives (including a young man of St. James AMEC),
etc.
We
still thank God for the rain irrespective of the damages
that resulted when the sluices of the dam were opened.
The challenge is ours to resettle, rebuild and
rehabilitate the affected persons and communities. The
St. James Trust
is one of the few non-profit organizations involved in
this gigantic task, where we feel we are called to make
a difference.
If
you, or your institution, or your church would like to
support our initiative, please do not hesitate to call
me at the number listed below or to send your
contribution clearly marked
St. James Trust
to:
Mr.
Hendrik F Links (Centre Head)

Cecilia Williams Bryant, First A.M.E. Los Angeles, the A.M.E.
Connectional Church, and the world in an International Day
of Prayer.
Our Episcopal Supervisor, Dr. Cecelia

pray 12 hours on Friday, March 10, 2006. This
International Prayer Vigil will be held at First AME, Los
Angeles from 12:00 noon to 12:00
midnight.
Dr. "C's" heart's desire is to have 1,000 Prayers each
hour. Intercessors, please register with her office

season
from noon to midnight, soup, juices, fruit,
herbal teas, and water will be provided.
Saints, our Episcopal Supervisor is asking us to simply pray
together for our nation, renewal of the earth, our children,
the pandemic of HIV/AIDS and more. We need to stand in the
gap and stay on the wall together as we pray without
ceasing!
If you cannot join us on March 10, 2006, please stand with
us in the urgent season of prayer. If you are physically
able, we asking you to fast as the Lord leads you.
Please come join us and pray!
