Kangakiwi in town

For those Kiwis who remember David and Margaret McCracken, pastors in Manurewa many years ago - their son Steve has been at our church this week. The McCrackens hopped the Tasman 15 years ago to Melbourne.

Steve McCracken (right) with Jesse translating. Jesse is the best when it comes to translation - very switched on and able to grasp concepts and expand/clarify on them as he translates.

Steve is here with his mum and his 15-year daughter, doing a week (Sun-Fri, every night thru' the week) of meetings. He speaks like our Melody - a tragic mix of good Kiwi and Aussie-isms. He's an excellent fella despite the verbal defaults to 'fantasteek' and is putting good stuff into the church here. I've got to Monday and Wednesday and will get along tonight also.
