Another Tutor to Join Dumisani Faculty
With the departure from Dumisani of the Rev Norman Reid in June, Dr John Ross on 16 November and Umf. Victor Nkatha by the end of this semester, it is heartening to be able to report good news concerning the prospect of new arrivals.
We have already mentioned Wayne Gratz, who not only joins us as our new marketing and recruitment manager, but will also have some teaching duties. But Wayne is not the only new member of staff we are looking forward to welcoming.
The Dumisani board of Governors has invited Rev Greg Phillips to join the Faculty, and we are grateful to God that Greg has accepted the invitation. It is hoped that soon all the practicalities will be completed to enable the Phillips to move to King William’s Town, and for Greg to take up his duties in January, at the begining of the first semester of 2012
Over the past number of years Greg has accumulated wide experience in teaching theology. From 2004 to 2010 he has served at the Bible Institute of South Africa, Kalk Bay, where he was a full-time member of Faculty and Academic Dean. He holds a Master's degree in Old Testament from North-West University, and since 2009 has been pursuing a PhD in New Testament studies, specializing in the New Testament use of the Old Testament. Greg has also had pastoral experience in Zimbabwe where he worked from 1997 to 2000. He is married to Carol who was born and raised in King William's Town, and who also studied at the Bible Institute of South Africa. They have two daughters, Hannah (13) and Ruth (9).
Latest news. Tuesday, 8th November: we have just heard the good news that Greg and Carol have found a suitable home in King William’s Town. We trust their move goes well and we look forward to Greg joining the teaching team in January.
