Duronda Hood is a member of First Baptist Church in Double Springs. This will be her 7th trip to South Africa. She has learned she can’t dance because she was told she has no rhythm. If you have been with her before – you know this to be a fact. She will be able to visit a health clinic along with the team and realize how different medicine is in South Africa. She always enjoys giving “PomPom” (candy) out to all the children she comes in contact.

Al Hood is a member of First Baptist Church in Double Springs and leader of the group. This will be his 8th trip to South Africa. As a young man he did not want to heed God’s calling to preach because he did not want to go to Africa. God has changed his heart as well as his life. He enjoys preaching, doing door-to-door evangelism, and meeting all the different cultures in South Africa.
