We had opportunity to attend a local church this morning in Durban. We chose Musgrave Methodist Church whose pastor Rev. Stuart Bosch, is a most intriguing worship leader and pastor. He played guitar and led the singing, accompanied by a good praise team and preached a fine sermon. The church is 118 years old and is of delightful architecture and is a racially mixed church in urban Durban. There were a nice number of children and they were given instruments to assist in accompanying one of the hymns. The service was a blended one and we sang songs quite familiar to contemporary services in America and traditional hymns, including one from Charles Wesley. A Bishop of Nigeria and his wife asked to share a song in the service. They then served tea and goodies in the nicely landscaped garden area just outside the church. A most delightful experience. Of course, I had to jump in the pulpit! Joe
