It was freezing cold this Sabbath morning due to low temperatures and a biting wind. I really did not expect many of the members who had to walk a good distance to come but 55 great saints braved the cold and wind to come to our meetings. This says a lot for the faith of the saints here in Ikageng and Potchefstroom.

Between meetings the courtyard was busy with people trying to get a little warmth from the sun. Sister Merriam in her sharp looking check coat and sister Kea who was watching over a young sister caught some sun. The wonderful primary presidency leads all their charges to the toilet while sisters Kruger and Ncapayi share some thoughts.

Brothers Omphile, Gomolemo and Tinashe seem to be talking about the little one.  

Sisters Ratema and Lekebe pose for me while president and sister Kwaikwai try get a couple of moments alone.

Sister Kujane and the other sister Lekebe in the sun while we pose with brother and sister Tlotleng.

 There is a small gathering of the priesthood, brothers Tlotleng, Johannes, Komatso and Rampai. It would not be a Sabbath with out a photo of sister Thulo. 

The youngest Thulo gives me a smile while president Kwaikwai is caught trying to get some lunch at the social for brother Omphile Mokate’s farewell.

Speaking of brother Mokate here he is with sisters Williams and Thulo and then with Kea and a  young lady I do not recognize. Then he is with us and finally sister Ratema.

 The Kruger family gave Mary this beautiful flower arrangement for her birthday..
