ICF Members stunned by death of Steve de Gruchy

On 23rd February news that Steve had been involved in a rafting accident in South Africa and that his body was missing was rapidly circulated around the Fellowship.  On 24th February we learned that he was now formally presumed dead and that a funeral service would be held on Saturday afternoon 27th February.  Steve's body was subsequently found in the Mool River by police divers. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Adding New Languages

The ICF News Sheet is now available in Spanish thanks to former members of the Congregational Church in Herstmonceux, England.  It is hoped that the Latin America page of this website will go bi-lingual shortly, with news from the Region included.

 

We have hopes for translations of the News Sheet into Greek, Arabic and Korean before the end of the year!
