Harish Prabhu was kind enough to allow us to assist at the book stall he had in Actonville for the last year or so and I was wanting to expand this service going forward. I had certain ideas plans as to how we could do things but let’s just say Krsna had His plans Continue reading “Gauteng Preaching”
