Hi Family my name is Hugh.
I live in Johannesburg South Africa. I was saved - by His incredible Grace - out of the Catholic church in 1975, that's 45 years ago!
One of the great things about getting older is how I/you can look back over so many years and recall His faithfulness and love. It also places hardships and/or suffering in context in that you can often see what He was accomplishing in your life. I have looked for a site like this for a long time as I've always found it be such a blessing to meet new Family members. We are in a very real sense closer family than those we share only biology with.
Please say Hi and if you are also from South Africa say Howzit :)

Amen. I hear you, brother. One of God's greatest gifts to us is each other. So glad you landed here. Others will be along shortly.
