The Deans and Lufts visit Crossroads

Dave Dean chatting to Steve Manhanga
Steve and I were really pleased to have David and June Dean visit Crossroads yesterday. They came with their daughter Heather, her hubby David and their 3 children. Steve and Dave caught up on what was happening at Crossroads and the Crossroads plot and how some of these initiatives can be implemented at Thembalezizwe Church. They were interested in seeing the grinding mill in operation as well as watching a young lady carry 20kg of mealie meal on her head. Steve then took the family to the Tuckshop and showed David snr the basic commodities that are sold. Dave supported the Tuckshop by buying a few items.......David (son in law) was chatting to Sylvester - one of the emerging leaders at Crossroads. Sylvester also oversees the running of the Tuckshop and the grinding mill.

We then went to the Crossroads plot where Steve showed the family the chickens, goats, pigs and cattle - a model that is being set for communal farmers. Being faithful with little and start with what you have......

We visited Mildred Mkwananzi who is one of the chicken farmers in the community. She  is doing really well and collects close to 400 eggs a day. We then headed off to Ebenezer where we had organised a lunch for our visitors.

It was good catching up with the Deans and Lufts. David Dean is really impressed with what Steve has accomplished.

God is so good.
