Mary's Resolution
Mary Goode does not want to go to South Sudan, she has to. More than that her arrival sparks a series of events that will clash with the dark plans of a power hungry politician. Mary represents an opportunity to unite a divided community. A run down school needs help, teachers need jobs and then there is Mary Kuol. It is just possible that a strong woman could walk in the footsteps of her dead husband, to bring a solution. The problem is that Mary is as timid as a mouse and has never been to Africa. The journey that Mary undertakes is not just measured in miles but hugs, smiles and tears. In truth Mary has no idea what she is doing. Help will come, friendships will grow and surprising things will happen, good and bad. No one sees what is coming, who ever could believe that?

But this is Africa where nothing is simple or straight forward. How will she cope?

We may never say goodbye
Public relations spin, religion, environmental disaster and offshore outsourcing are entrenching globalisation worldwide. Three power brokers, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Moses Halligan, and Ted Earnstie are all fighting for greater market share. The archbishop wants substantially more people to polish his pews, and Moses Halligan through his PR firm is trying to source those parishioners. Moses intends to revamp the Church of England to demonstrate his skill in shaping societal change. Moses has garnered a reputation for spin through a clever rebranding of Global Mining. Global has evaded a class action which results in skyrocketing share prices for its CEO, Ted Earnstie. Whilst these men set impressive corporate agendas they unwittingly create havoc in their desire for more. Against a backdrop of adversarial colleagues, families who don’t gel, where abuse is common and relationships are defined by insecurities, We May Never Say Goodbye to the effects of Globalisation, or each other.
