President Randy Golter arrives at the Seminary with his wife Elisabeth


On Friday evening, when Professors Schulz and Pless left for the USA via Germany and Dakar respectively, President Randy Golter from the LCMS Rocky Mountain District arrived with Delta Airlines. His wife Elisabeth is accompanying him. They are both thrilled to visit the LTS in Tshwane and catch up on old acquintances and friendships made over the years of RMD's partnership with the LTS initiated by LCMS World Relief & Human Care.
Yesterday the Golters visited the Farmers market, had a look around Pretoria and visited the LCMS World Missions Area director for Africa Dr. Mike Rodewald, who had invited the Seminary teachers over to his place to meet the Golters and also Rev. James Fandrey from the Lutheran Heritage Foundation. 
The Golters are going to stay for nearly two weeks visiting at the Seminary, but also travelling to four of the five dioceses of the Lutheran Church in Southern Africa to meet with the various deans and to hear from them about the ongoing work and mission of the Lutheran Church in Southern Africa.
They are joined tonight by President Herb Mueller from the LCMS South Illinois District, who is travelling with the student of theology Mark Theiss.  Bishop David Tswaedi DD is going to pick them up at the airport and take them to the guesthouse Meintjieskop near the Union buildings .
