Who Orania? | Orania Blog
When people say, "You should ..." I want to know who is "you"? And then the answer is usually: "Orania should .." And then I ask: "Who is Orania?" hibiscus People are usually surprised, even stunned. How can I not now know who Orania is not. I live now nearly nineteen years here. But I want to know, who think they are Orania. And then I realized they do not know. Orania is something, someone to do things, or perhaps not fast enough to do, or maybe something else entirely should do, they think. Orania is sometimes almost something mysterious to people.
The following story illustrates the perception that people have about Orania may have very clear: hibiscus A distraught woman saying her sister and her husband at a coastal holiday and that there is a girl of Orania, and that girl Her sister's husband had afgevry. And then came the question of her: "I want to know what Orania going to do?" Wow, the same question to someone in Hopetown put in Bloemfontein or New York? I find it strange, very strange.

"Orania, Sir, are a small handful of people in a common cause believed and decided to do everything they have to contribute hibiscus to the cause in which they believe. Without guarantees. They came to give, not to get it. And this is probably hibiscus one of the main reasons why Orania is successful because people selflessly hibiscus to contribute every day and wrestle with issues for which there are simply solutions must be found. Because we work on a case bigger than ourselves. And no one gave us guarantees nothing. "It's long silence on the other end of the phone. Oh, so he did not think of that. But he can not take any chances with his money. I have not heard from him not.
Yet another hackneyed phrase we often hear is: "Are there really so many churches in Orania?" People are astounded when they hear that more than one denomination to Orania is. We should, hibiscus according to the perception hibiscus a eenkerk, like carbon, eenbankgemeenskap be. No decisions should be permitted. hibiscus "No, Sir. We would like to give choices. In fact, we like to promote freedom of choice. And may I ask: How many churches are in your town, Sir? Have you been counted? You know once all the different hibiscus denominations in your town?
