Easter celebrations and moreAlan Sutton (<strong>Doxa</strong> <strong>Deo</strong>at Raslouw Campus! Raslouw Campus)Our partners at Raslouw Campus celebrated the <strong>true</strong> message <strong>of</strong> Easter.<strong>The</strong> truth <strong>of</strong> theincredible events that took place on Calvary grabbed their hearts and minds anew. AlanSutton, our Campus Pastor, shares the details <strong>of</strong> this special celebration and also otherexciting developments that followed.We were blessed with good attendance over the Easter weekend!Everybody who attended shared in the full story <strong>of</strong> the CROSS in aunique way. Our Arts Department, under the leadership <strong>of</strong> WillemGouws, set up 12 “Cross Stations” throughout the auditorium. Thisgave our partners the chance to walk through each <strong>of</strong> the “CrossStations” during the weekend. We had a beautifully constructedempty grave on stage that brought tears and joy to everyone as theyentered the “tomb <strong>of</strong> Christ” and read the amazing story.Our Easter experience was followed by a series called “Fullness out<strong>of</strong> Emptiness” that gives an introduction to the establishment <strong>of</strong> thechurch as a “going-body” <strong>of</strong> believers that impacts people andmakes a difference in society. We launched an “iTouch” week wherepartners were invited to give at least one hour <strong>of</strong> their time to touchpeople through projects in Centurion. <strong>The</strong>se ranged from the WinterWarmer Project to outreaches to street children and old age homes.We are also excited about the introduction <strong>of</strong> two red chairs on stagecalled our chairs <strong>of</strong> honour. <strong>The</strong>se chairs are meant for our wonderfulvolunteers! It is a highlight during our worship services when wecelebrate and honour our volunteers for the impact they makethrough their loving service in the campus. <strong>The</strong>y never know who willbe honoured on a specific day. We realise the value <strong>of</strong> all ourvolunteers and love to honour them publicly and pray over their lives.Join Raslouw Campus on Facebook!A new Foundation Phase HostelCarla Milburn (<strong>Doxa</strong> <strong>Deo</strong>at Edendale School Edendale School’s Marketing)On the 12 th <strong>of</strong> April our Edendale School <strong>of</strong>ficially launched their Foundation Phase Hostel for GradeR to Grade 3 learners.
