This year, the growth trajectory for Paradigm Shift looks more like a 90 degree incline and with that growth curve we needed more hands on deck. God has been faithful to bring those individuals along.

Last year, four staff members mobilized 103 South African volunteers across four churches. This year, six staff members will mobilize 600 volunteers across 20 churches!

So the Paradigm Shift team is growing! Pictured below is the 2010 Paradigm Shift team in South Africa.

At the beginning of January we welcomed Michelle (picture left front) to the full-time staff at Paradigm Shift. Michelle is serving as the National Project Coordinator, which means she is involved in a variety of aspects of the growth planned for 2010.

This week, we just received a second addition to the 2010 staff. Cate Carroll (picture front middle) is serving as the Cape Town Regional Manager, which means she is heading up Paradigm Shift efforts across the country. She will be doing a bit of all the aspects of Paradigm Shift as well.
