I'll be leaving in 4 days with 35 of our Pretoria Every Nation members and will be staying for just over 2 and half weeks. The conference is always an amazing experience; feedback from across the world in what God is doing in the church body, dances, media and worship expressing cultures from around the world! I have a passion for multi-culturalism, so the thought of being in one space with such a large presentation of the world blows my mind!
Have a look at these media clips to get a better idea of what the conference is about:
What I'm most excited for is the 5 day internship I'll be doing with the Manila Media team after the conference. I'll be helping in post-production as well as getting a better idea of how they run things there. They provide media and serve hundreds of churches in the Philippines, as well as cater internationally for book and ministry resources. My objective for the week is to see logistically and structurally what a media team serving so many entities looks like? As well as meet and build relationships with the tam, as we liaise frequently over email but have never had enough time to really share vision and idea's. As the Every Nation Pretoria Link media team, we dream of growing to a point where we can provide for and serve churches in Africa with media resources. As well as using media specifically in community transformation and mission research. So the objective is to combine what we see in Manila with our vision for Africa and see what new ideas and visions develop? I'm particularily excited about learning from the Manila church since they're also a 3rd world country like ours, and thus we share similar logistical struggles and challenges. Miemie and Elmien, both volunteers for Link will be doing the internship with me.
Then after the week internship, it's time for 5 days of backpacking! No clear plans yet, besides that I want to find my way to the coast and Philippino islands as soon as possible, and take it from there.
I'll make a point of doing some blogging as I go:)
