There is something missing, I was thinking, when reading the article “Momentous night for Kaikohe Rotary Club”, in our local paper. (The Northland Age, Thursday, July 7, 2016)
The function was the farewell for a couple I know quite well. We lived in Kaikohe for almost 25 years working there as missionaries. (United Maori Mission, UMM)
ROTARY
In the article I am reading how the couple has been honoured, about the things they have been involved in and more. There is quite a long list about their achievements. It is quite impressive to read. The building of an airplane is also mentioned, and it is still flying.
But I am missing that the couple was leading the Brethren Assembly in Kaikohe for a long time. It is not mentioned. I said already that we worked as missionaries in Kaikohe, and I used to preach at times in the Brethren Chapel. The Chapel was not far away from our dwelling.
