Thursday was the last day of Dr. Michael Rodewald before leaving for a Christmas furlough in the United States and home for him. His family was there already and only his son Caleb was still with him here in Pretoria. A good time for father and son according to their comments on Thursday evening when they came over to Rubida Street 196 for a last dinner farewell.
As usual we had good fun together and good even get talking on a number of common issues: Seminary and Church business mainly, but Africa and the USA featured too. I am glad for this close partnership with Mike and his office of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod's World Mission Africa - and not only because he can hopefully carry a number of the Seminary books back here, when he returns with his family early in January. The Hoffmeiers will be very glad that some more of those many books stored at their home in South Illinois will leave with him.
