Seaview Game Park Port Elizabeth
http://youtu.be/THpGp2wUt4M
Seaview Game Park is one of those treasures you don't want to miss when visiting Port Elizabeth. For the tourist it will be the highlight of your stay in the Eastern Cape. Seaview Game Park definitly comes highly recommended. I have personally been to Seaview Game Park many times and it is one of those small game reserves where you will be able to see a variety Africa's animals in the wild. In bigger Parks such as the Kruger National Park you won't always have the opportunity of watching live lions, but at Seaview Game Park the visitor is assured of this wonderful experience. It may even be possible to hold a small lion cub such as we were able to do on one of our visits, and before leaving you will be able to have a cup of tea in the restuarant atop a hill overlooking the Indian Ocean.

We remember this day the 27 January 2012, the day set aside worldwide to reflect on the suffering of the Jewish people, both victims and survivors. The targeting of Jews continues unabated even in the 21st century.
We pray for the Jewish nation:
That G-D would bless them in the state of Israel
That G-D would protect them from enemies dedicated to their destruction
That G-D would give them favour amongst the nations of the world
That G-D would prosper them as a nation
That G-D would multiply them in the nations of the world
That G-D would bring peace to Jerusalem the Jewish Capital
That G-D would allow the Temple in Jerusalem to be rebuilt
That G-D would give the Jewish nation the hearts of Lions
That G-D would never again allow a repeat of the Holocaust in future
We pray for the “Balm of Gilead” over the Jewish nation to spare them from hurtful memories and the sufferings they have to endure.
Amen

The Horse Depot Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
This Depot was for the horses offloaded at Port Elizabeth's harbour for use by British troops during the Boer War. Over 30 000 horses died during the battles and are buried all over the Transvaal and Natal. The Horse Memorial in Cape Road stands as testimony to the part these animals played in the War effort. The British also took great care in looking after the animals.

St Paul's Anglican Church, Port Elizabeth
Our Christian Heritage
The original church of St Paul was first established in 1854. Placed on the edge of Albany Road on the hill near Main Street gave way to a new church structure in Parsons Hill about 1KM from the Green Acres shopping center. The church can be viewed from many roads one of which is Diaz Street looking south. The congregation has also changed many times in its 150 year existence and I believe many original sacramental items including the original stained glass windows are to be found in the new Parsons Road church structure.

Dedicated to a very special Friend - Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
So much we’ve done together in our friendship over the years,
So much we’ve shared together, both happiness and tears,
How good the Lord has been to us, and this special gift of love
is the greatest gift He could bestow from His blessings up above.
Nothing is more wonderful than the gift of a real, true friend
who stands by you through thick and thin, until the very end,
And in this age we live in, when life goes by so fast,
It’s good to know our friendship is one which will always last.
We’ve both had many trials and at times found things hard to bear,
We’ve both found life can be lonely, and we’ve often felt despair,
Yet in spite of all the problems, and the things which have caused so much pain
There’s so much for us to be thankful for, and so much we still have to gain.
I thank God for the friendship He’s given us to share,
I thank Him, for this quality of friendship is quite rare,
Not many have a dear close friend, as I’ve had, at their side,
No-one to put their trust in, in whom they can confide.
And thank you, too, my special friend, for all you mean to me,
For all your kindness, understanding and your sympathy,
And though it’s always hard to part – it causes so much pain,
It won’t be long until once more we’ll see each other again.
