Dear Brother,
I too rejoice in the goodness of God demonstrated in the life and ministry of our brother! May God give him many more years of faithful service. His contribution to the Copperbelt Ministerial College is invaluable.
The Lord bless and keep you,

Wonderful tribute, Conrad. I particularly liked the juxtaposition of the two buildings. Doesn't that say it all? It will be a delight to meet Pastor Choolwe, here or There.

Congratulations on twenty years of faithful service to our Lord, Pastor Choolwe.

Sykes,

Great to hear from you. As usual, your insights are always very helpful. Keep them coming!

I was tempted to say more on "the good old days" but thought of concentrating more on the pastorate. After all, that is what we are commemorating. I hope someone can take up a fuller version of "Choolwe and his childhood friends"!

Thanks for pointing out the ommission of Ronald's present pastorate; I will squeeze it in somewhere. As for the surname, it is mentioned the first time I refer to him.

Yes, you do want me to get fired! I write three newspaper articles a week, plus one blog. Anymore than that and my fellow elders will be wondering whether I know what they are paying me for!

Wonderful story on Pastor Choolwe, though I've always wished we were allowed to spell his surname 'Mweetwa'. It seems so much more natural.

Thank you for this inspiring tale. Just one or two minor issues though. It would be nice to have a bigger version of the picture of the preachers in their adolescence (so to speak) and their full names and the occasion.

Also, although many of the reformed family know Pastor Kalifungwa, some new visitors may not. So, it might be a good idea to include surnames (and maybe their current pastorates) as you refer to your friends in the Humble Undershepherd Fellowship. Just some thoughts.

One last plea: at the risk of getting some of our friends fired for slacking on the job, are you considering updating your blog a little more frequently? Even a brief daily thought or event log in between the 'tomes' would be most welcome. Please promote your sermon on Opening the Book tonight!

Hi Levi,

I did not know that I am almost costing people their jobs! Thanks for visiting the blog. You make "blogging" worth its while.

Conrad.

I have learnt my lesson! Never to start reading your articles when I have work pending on my desk. I get so carried away by the manner of your writing and valuable content of your articles that I only "wake up" at the end and realise that time is gone.

Thanks anyway for the information and edification your blog and other articles provide. May the Lord continue to bless your ministry and keep your soul.

Next time I will only click on the www.conradmbewe.com link when I am ready to read the whole article not just to see whats new - it might cost me my job!
