The People of the Karoo
One of the most exiting things about our life together as a denomination is the warmth and hospitality that we always receive during our Executive and Assembly gatherings.  Congregationalists always go out of their way to receive us with love, care and expectation.  This time around we are meeting in the Karoo, which is one of the regions where our church is struggling for survival.  We have churches scattered widely in communities where there are high levels of unemployment, poverty and continued marginalization of certain groups.
