Gideon Tredoux, a retired minister, missionary, and educator, passed away peacefully in his sleep 11 May at 82 years of age.

He served as a minister, lecturer, theological college principal, and missionary in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Malawi. After retiring in 2000, Tredoux worked on translations and, more recently, preached at an old age home as well as churches.

In April, he was hospitalized with both pneumonia and kidney failure. A funeral service will be held at Cornerstone Church of the Nazarene - Horison in Johannesburg, South Africa, 18 May at 2 p.m.

Prayer is requested for his wife, Jeanette, and their five children, 10 grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and extended family grieving his passing.
