Youth Alpha training in Drakenstein Prison



On Friday 18th and Saturday 19th January we were very privileged to have Francis Dodd from Ghana join us to run Youth Alpha Training in Drakenstein prison, and Franschhoek community respectively. 

Francis is the Youth Alpha Coordinator for Africa. The Chaplin at Drakenstein prison arranged for all of his spiritual workers to be there, along with some of the spiritual worker volunteers from Pollsmoor Prison who attended the Drakenstein training.

The day was filled with learning and laughter as the people were taught about the basic principles of Alpha.  They also played many games that make Youth Alpha so unique and fun. Francis’ expertise and wisdom were greatly appreciated and loved by all 25 guests at the prison training, and 65 guests at the community training.
