The Lesotho Link
 

Durham Diocese is linked with the diocese of Lesotho in Southern Africa. As one contribution to this exchange, the Chaplaincy arranged for distinguished writer Zakes Mda to come to Durham for a residency.
Unfortunately, Dr Mda had to return to Lesotho before the period of his residency expired, but it proved possible to bring actor Gonzales Scout over to this country to perform "By Way of the Rock", the work Mda had written during his residency.


Inspired by Durham Cathedral and celebrating the common ground of faith in Lesotho and Durham, the photograph shows Gonzales Scout performing the work in the Cathedral.
