Welcome to our Blog! What are the goals of "Africonnection"? To further the Kingdom. To help North American friends make a connection with the lives and experiences of their brothers and sisters in Africa. And to give North American friends an opportunity to partner with Africa Nazarene University as it supports the Kingdom through the Church of the Nazarene in Africa.

The Africonnection comes alive


Great Weekend! Dr. Rod Reed, chair of the religion department at Africa Nazarene stayed at our house as he did deputation at Lakeview and College Churches of the Nazarene in Nampa. We got to hear his presentation at the 4PM Sunday service. The presentation was inspiring and so was the reception afterwards: lots of old Africa hands met to talk over their ANU experiences: Virgil Vail (who helped ANU set up generators and its electrical system), Hal and Ruthie Webber(who helped get the accounting system put in place), Don and Judy Murphy (who helped get the campus computer system set up) and two former students from ANU. The Murphy's home was full of souvenirs of their time in Africa and very shortly everyone was telling stories about their time there. The picture is of Ruthie Weber, who helped with office organization at ANU while Hal was working on the books. The Africonnection at work!
