Dear All

 

Good evening. We had a wonderful launching on Sunday and we have no choice now but to hit the road. The time is short and the entire Wesley community here and abroad must do its duty. We have launched and there is no time to waist now we must work.
 
I am attaching an the outline of the two weeks program as well as a list of projects .It should be noted that this include some projects which will be completed long after the REUNION is over. Keep your eyes on the must activities. A secretariat will be established for the sole purpose of coordinating the implementation of the reunion activities.

 
Also attached is the address of the Chairman given at the launching calling for unity while outlining the objectives of the program
 
By the way the AH FUH AWE program should begin next week if all goes well. It will be based in Wesley and will be carried live on Kairi FM every Tuesday from 8.00 am. It will be a call in program and will be run by the people of Wesley in the community. It will be transmitted via the internet.
