Hello, I am Brenton. Some people call me Brent. Some people have been known to call me Ben – there’s a story behind that, but I’ll save it for another time.
The surname is a bit trickier: Prigge. It’s originally German, so the final ‘e’ is pronounced. I suppose if you imagined the final letter as an ‘a’ you would probably say it correctly – or pretty close. I’m quite used to it being said wrongly anyway! Right, that’s the name out of the way.
A bit of background: I was born in South Africa, the eldest of four boys, and had a very happy early childhood growing up in a very small village in the hills of Kwazulu Natal. We then moved to Port Shepstone on the East coast of Kwazulu Natal for my high school years, and that too was a very happy time – and the beginning of my love for the sea.

Dear Friends
I greet you in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
I have some important news that I need to share with all of you that will have a significant impact on the churches of our hub. I shared this news in a video that was shown at each of the hub churches on Sunday morning 6 July.
I wanted to share this news in such a way that you the congregations all heard it at the same time so that nobody heard it via the grapevine or the rumour mill.
