With the Francistown Gym project in this protracted cycle of delay, I have been looking at possible alternatives. I have put out feelers to see what projects I can devlop both in Rome and Johannesburg. The nuns I have been working with for these past few years have been asking me to come out to Rome for a while so I think that we can get something together in that department. The sister incarge of the German translation of my music is now in Rome and since we are now publishing our third English edition she could use some help in puting together the eqv. German and Italian editions. The Mothers are in full support of the trip and so we are working out the details.
In Johannesburg I have a musician friend looking into projects in townships of Kagiso and Soweto. When I was in the Peace Corps I did some work there with local choral directors and their chiors. They were the best music students I ever had. They wanted to asorb everything that they possibly could from the short time I spent with them. They were so happy to have me with them that they offered what little money they had between them to come and stay with them and set up some formal classes. While I could never take their money I'm looking into what we might be able to set up. Here the Mothers have come to my help by asking the community to pray for my return to Africa. The sisters have been very supportive my projects over the years.
Time will say...
