A
FORWARD LOOK WITH A BACKWARD GLANCE

Members and Friends in Christ
My
family and I have been honored by the trust bestowed
upon us to the leadership of this organisation for this
term. We have been inspired by those who passed before
us and will keep on tapping on their expertise. |
The task
that lies ahead of us has not been begun by men but by God
himself. Our team has been called to be part of the great team
of Jesus Christ between now and then. Like Paul in my
favourite verse Phil 1v6 “being confident of this, that he who
began a good work in you will carry it to completion until the
day of Christ Jesus”. We are called to be part of the work
that was begun by Christ and not man. We will accomplish the
assignment not by might nor by power but by the spirit of the
Lord.
Taking an
introspective look at our organization for the last sixteen
years as a member, and doing that in the framework of the
Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Southern Africa, calls for a
definition of the of the vision of the Association, for a
better appreciation of our existence. Our vision is to
Empower the Seventh-day Adventist
students, Professionals, the Church and heal the Nation.
Our church is awaiting our service just as we have been doing
in the past years. We have touched the nation in different
ways in the past and made promises that were not fulfilled to
the ultimatum. Both our providers and beneficiaries are still
awaiting further inter- action from us. Let us make sure that
our term will address all the above stakeholders.
This vision
will be accomplished when we can plant the four pillars of our
organisation.

My prayer is
that God can sustain us till we lay the baton to others or
till we place it at the feet of Jesus. Let us Lift up Christ
and tell the world that we have come thus far by faith and we
have A FORWARD LOOK WITH A
BACKWARD GLANCE.
