So Dan is about to start his teaching life at Redcliffe, kicking off with a course on Christ and the Transformation of the Human Condition (or something like that)... Also Introducing Applied Theology in Global Perspective. And Biblical Interpretation in Intercultural Contexts.
We have already got to know most of the staff, a very friendly bunch, almost all with a missions background.
Today we met some of the new students - several Dutch people, a German lady, a Ugandan we already knew from last year, a girl from California, a few Brits - there are also Polish, Brazilian, Spanish, and many other students - a great mix. Although I won't be teaching there at present, I am going to help Dan with his student group (community group), which will meet at our place, so I look forward to getting to know some of them.
Dan's new office:
Meeting students at the barbeque (there are some of the lecturers' kids in this picture - the students here are mainly in their twenties and thirties!) :
Some of our new colleagues: l to r, Dave Fisher (worked in Tanzania with Tracy and their children), Christine Memory (worked in Spain with Jim and their children), Carol Kingston-Smith (worked in Bolivia with Andy and their children):
Some other pics of the college:
