WYNBERG SCHOOL
Wynberg, 2nd February 1846
Sir, As you have noticed the intended opening of the new School Room of the Dutch Reformed Church at Wynberg, on the 1st instant, I trust that a description of the proceedings on that day, solemn and satisfactory as they were, may not be refused a place in your valuable and truly philanthropic paper.
At an early hour on Sunday morning the Dutch Reformed Church Building at Wynberg was crowded; at 10 o’ clock the worthy minister, P.E.FAURE, ascended to the puplpit, and delivered a most excellent and impressive sermon from Matthew xxviii v 29 “Teach all nations”, which words are inscribed in front of the School Room. At the end of this sermon the 151st Hymn, 5th and 6th verses, were sung, upon which the minister descended from the pulpit, invited the congregation to the New School Room, addressed the elders, and placed into the hands of the elder, D.G. EKSTEEN, the Holy Scriptures, as the Book of God, which will be the foundation of the Instruction that will be there given, and into the hand of the elder, J.A. LOUW, the Catechism of the Reformed Church and the Psalms and Hymn Book, in order, with them, to precede the congregation in procession to the place which was about to be consecrated to Almighty God, for the most holy of purposes. The Minister and the Revd Mr. ELLIOTT followed the elders with the remaining Churchwardens, the public officers, and the congregation, in the most solemn procession imaginable, and anything more impressive I do not recollect ever to have witnessed than to behold a multitude of about 600 standing crowded together and joining in an impressive and solemn prayer, in which the minister beseeched the blessing on that building and the work to which it was intended to be devoted, thanking God heartily for the difference in the state of things on that day, compared to what it was a few years ago, when no house of prayer existed at this place, and when the Sabbaths were spent in a quite different manner, and for quite different purposes. This prayer was followed up by the united voice of all present, praising God with the words of the 100 Ps, 1, 3 and 4 verses, which were sung most impressively, whereupon the minister with stretched arms implored God’s blessing. Thus ended the proceedings of this solemn morning, and it was indeed most pleasing to observe how heartily the many present approached the minister with congratulations on the finished work, and on his birthday, which the 1st February happened to be.
Scarcely had the congregation left the consecrated School Room, or the Members of the Consistory aided by the other brethren were observed busily employing themselves in preparing seats to the number of 220 for the afternoon service, which was to be held according to the announcement in the School Room at half past four – the building was again crowded, for not only were all the seats, but every inch of the School Room, even the steps in front occupied. The Revd Mr ELLIOTT delivered a most appropriate and impressive address in the English language from Ps 119 v 130 – an address which I trust will have the effect of securing to us the support of our English brethren.
At 7 o’clock in the evening the Rev Mr. MORGAN preached to a crowded congregation in the Dutch language in the School Room, which was well lighted – from John 10 v 16 – encouraging everyone to cooperate with our Saviour in bringing many to that one flock, under one shepherd. Surely this day will long be remembered – may the Lord grant a rich harvest on this beginning. The collections on the above occasions amounted to £23.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant
