Tour Grahamstown & Dawn Barnes writes, "Bill Domeris in Grahamstown, he is head of the theology school for the Anglican Church there. He is keen to have theological students take out (in small groups) to about 4 or 5 local projects in town to see what is happening there. He said there is an old age home, HIV project, etc.
This would also allow an interaction between the theological students and the young folks in our group. There are also some walking tours that show off the history of the area. Grahamston is a friendly, historic, college, safe town. Rhodes University is based there." |
