We handed over the house on the 12 September 2010 after 2 weeks of solid packing!  Its been fun and exciting on the one hand but nerve wracking on the other!  We going to start a new chapter in our lives, hard as it may be, we look forward to new adventures and new memories!

Father Frank ordained as Bishop (Outshoorn) 17 July

On the 17th July Father Frank was ordained as Bishop of Outshoorn.  We decided to jetset to George to attend the ordination.

At the place we stayed at had a little animal farm.  Jaime was introduced to an ostrich for the first time.  It freaked him out but all he wanted was to be around it. 


The Saturday was the actual ordination.  Here is a pic of all the bishops that attended.


After the ordination the guests were invited for a light lunch - full buffet was more like it!


Father Franks family that attended.  Unfortunately we did not have a wide angle lense so a few people were cut off.
