June 12-23rd, Pastor Dave Burrows travelled once again to South Africa for his second tour of the African country.
  Dr. Burrows visit included familiar stops from his previous trip plus additional new venues.

After flying 15 hours from Atlanta, Dr. Burrow’s first stop was the city of Rustenburg where he was special guest speaker for the June 16th (Soweto Uprising) commemoration service which brought together adults and youth for a special Sunday morning service. The event was hosted by Apostle Treasure Kgobokwe and the Excellence Christian Center Church. The powerful service culminated with a special prayer and dedication for the youth of Rustenburg.

After a few days rest Dr. Burrows was guest speaker at the Kingdom Embassy special service for all ages where he shared on the Laws of Good Success. The reports were excellent from his time of ministry and Dr. Burrows once again prayed for the youth in recognition of the South African designation of June as Youth Month.

Next stop was the Highlands North Boys High School where he addressed the student body on the importance of making right choices. He used his life as an example of both good and bad choices and showed the young men how he recovered from his bad choices and is now a mentor to many young men and women who have been the victim of poor choices. The entire student body reacted to his statement that he turned from being a young "dope dealer" to a new calling as a "hope dealer" bringing inspiration to the masses in his travels around the world.

Dr. Burrows next was the guest speaker for a special meeting called for a group of parents just outside Johannesburg. The meeting was a tremendous success as Dr. Burrows shared his experiences as a parent and from his book Kingdom Parenting and the series Parenting in Perilous Times. The breakfast meeting concluded with Dr. Burrows fielding questions from anxious parents for over an hour. The parents were greatly impacted and asked Dr. Burrows to return next year to an expanded group of parents and also to the staff of two local corporations.

On Sunday June 22nd at Hope Restoration Center Dr. Burrows closed out their annual Youth Conference speaking in three Sunday morning services to over 7,000 members and conference attenders. He was warmly welcomed by hosts Dr. Siphiwe and Phindile Mathebula and prayed for the youth as they faced the challenges of a modern society filled with negative media and influences. The youth were especially encouraged by the message of Living in Two Worlds and cheered as Dr. Burrows did a special spoken word remix of the song All I Do is Win.

The 2014 tour ended for Dr. Burrows at a special breakfast hosted by The South Africa Ministry of Energy and co-sponsored by several South Africa corporations. The meeting brought together business leaders for a time of discussion and a live television interview with the Minister of Energy Tina Jomat Pettersson and other energy consultants.

For the second time Pastor Burrows was once again hosted by Mr. Charlie Masala and the MMI (Myles Munroe International) South Africa office. Plans are already in place for a third tour in June of 2015 with an even more expanded itinerary.
