Kaleidoscope 2013 – Some Testimonies

/0 Comments/in ,

Kaleidoscope Women's Conference 2013

The ladies had a fantastic time at Kaleidoscope 2013 this last weekend, with a focus on the Holy Spirit. God visited and ministered in a powerful way. Here are some testimonies from the weekend:

Justine Engelbrecht:
There are very few words to describe the incredible power of the Holy Spirit, thank you Jean [Guthrie] for taking the time to be with us and for changing hearts and realising dreams. I went up on Friday morning to receive the gift of tongues, and while I have felt the presence of the Holy Spirit on occasion before, nothing could have prepared me for the amazing grace and peacefulness of His presence in my life since then. There is no question to His brilliance and few words to describe, the incredible power that fulfilled me, all I know is that I want more and more and more of Him.

Thank you Col, Ryan, Glenn, Kim and everyone at Cornerstone for the opportunity to take the pics, for sharing my poem, and allowing me to be a part of this amazing, incredible and beneficial women’s conference. Next year cannot come around soon enough. Love Justine x

Ps. Thanks a mil Fern for your help on Saturday. x

[Thanks Justine for all the hard work!]

Thank you!!! Simple words, but so heartfelt. Thank you to all who planned, served, prepared the refreshments, transformed the church, caught and caught and caught, who prayed, who led worship, passed tissues, packed welcome packs, set up and cleaned up – the list is way more. I am so grateful to worship a God who is amazing and belong to church with a leadership who welcome the holy spirit.

Acclaimed Rhino Conservationist, Dr William Fowlds, at the Exchange on 6 December

Acclaimed conservationist, rhino activist and wildlife veterinarian, Dr William Fowlds, will be speaking at The Exchange, Johannesburg – a business forum at Cornerstone Church Bedfordview – on Friday, 6 December at 6am for 6:30am. Dr Fowlds will be talking about his Christian faith and his passion for nature and how these work together. For more on Dr Fowlds, see below.

His talk will be followed by a continental breakfast and donations to pay for the costs of the breakfast will be taken up.

Entrance is free but space is limited. Registration for the event is now closed.

More about Dr William Fowlds

Dr Fowlds is a well-known and respected veterinarian who is passionate about wildlife conservation and, in particular, dedicates a huge portion of his time championing the plight of the rhino through various initiatives. One of these initiatives is a partnership with the Investec Rhino Lifeline project, which aims to “raise awareness of the rhino crisis and to respond through education, rescue and prevention initiatives.”

In addition to his conservation initiatives, Fowlds also provides training and educational opportunities for vet students at schools on all five continents, exposing them to the many conservation needs of Southern Africa. He has a stellar reputation with the academic fraternity, eco-tourism organisations and wildlife conservationists. He has also appeared on international television shows on NBC and ITV news.

Recently, Dr Fowlds documented a 2012 heinous poaching attack and the subsequent slow recovery of one rhino at the Kariega game reserve in the Eastern Cape (two of the other rhinos attacked unfortunately died). This has raised a great deal of awareness about poaching and the illegal rhino horn trade.

Below is a video clip from NBC featuring Dr William Fowlds. Please note, it is sensitive viewing.
