Hulle is voor dit ook deur die plaaslike leraar ds. Malcolm James met nagmaal bedien. Ds. James het daarbenewens nie net sy musikale talente uitgestal nie, maar die gaste ook met sy weergawe van &#8220;Kinders van die wind&#8221; van Laurika Rauch verras. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daarna het hy sy tema vir die diens daarop gebou en ges\u00ea ons is nie kinders wat deur die wind weggewaai word nie, maar behoort aan Jesus. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Verskeie geestelike leiers, onder wie die eerwaardes Eugene Truter en Magdalene Olivier asook die emeritus-leraar ds. Jurie van Rooy, het met die uitdeel van die sakramente gehelp. Daarna het die gaste na die pragtige en sielvolle weergawe van &#8220;I love you Lord&#8221; deur Berenice Wildskut geluister, terwyl &#8216;n gr.\u200912-leerder van Worcester Gimnasium wat aan endometriosis ly, haar storie met die gehoor gedeel het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ds. Van Rooy het grepe uit sy boek Troos my Volk met die gehoor gedeel. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In die uitgesoekte gehoor was die uitvoerende burgemeester, Antoinette Steyn, en haar dogter, terwyl die programdirekteur, Selvador Bruiners, die gehoor met sy kwinkslae aan sy voete gehad het. Onder die gaste was die 101-jarige Tannie Sophie Booysen en Oom Koos Botha (96), die Antie Siena Belelie (92), die tantes Ennie Williams en Elizabeth Theron (albei 88), Tant Rosie Williams (86) en die 85-jarige Tant Daphne Daniels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almal was dit eens dat dit gewis vir almal daar een van die lekkerste bederfies was. Pat het in haar dankie- toespraak al haar borge en almal wat dit bygewoon het, bedank dat hulle haar en wyle Mandela se verjaarsdag op s\u00f3 &#8216;n gepaste wyse kon vier.- Alver
