We held a memory competition for our Sunday School children, at which they each came aside to us teachers one at a time and quoted as many verses as possible in 30 seconds! (these are verses they have been memorizing one by one over many Sunday Schools.) The results were impressive and so much fun! We were so proud of how well each of our dear students did! The top three kids received a notebook with all our Sunday School Scriptures to date, and a sticker for each verse quoted to decorate it with. They are all eager for the next time!

Farm Visits – Hygiene Packs
On a farm near Villiersdorp, we had a very blessed time giving a Salvation message to the workers, and then handing out hygiene packs – as well as a “From Jesus With Love” book in Afrikaans for each one! We were also able to equip the on-farm creche with character-building posters in Afrikaans. And special extra, just a half hour before leaving that morning someone donated 4 delicious cakes, which we brought to the creche as well. Jesus is awesome!
University and Street Outreach
We have been having very fruitful and inspiring times over the last months witnessing on the streets and varsity campuses. Many receive Gospel tracts, Bibles, Activated magazines, and other potent spiritual literature aimed at discipleship and a radical life focused on Jesus. We are often able to meet up again with those encountered for more discussion, counselling, prayer, and study of God’s Word.
General Distribution
On a daily basis, food parcels and vanloads of needed items are delivered to soup kitchens, care homes, orphanages, shelters, and families. These foodstuffs and items always come with Gospel material and a message of Hope and God’s Love.
Hermanus Outreach Success!
The team witnessing during the Whale Festival in Hermanus has a great and blessed time! Younger and older received the message, and all kinds of discussions were had. 56 Bibles, Activated magazines, and other books were freely given to help individuals grow in faith, many were prayed for on the spot for various requests, over 3000 Gospel tracts were distributed, and 15 decisions were made to accept Jesus as Saviour! We are SO thankful to the Lord and all those that make this possible.
A Special Blessing for the Men at a Rehab
How pleased we felt to be able to bless the men going through this rehab with brand new lovely shoes – as well as many other needed items! The immediate shock and joy on their faces when they saw the boxes of shoes (ready in each of their sizes) was awesome to see! Praise you Lord!
Outreach in Hermanus!
Our team is in Hermanus for street outreach during the Whale Festival! Please keep them in prayer for great weather, supply, open doors, anointing, safety, strength, energy, and for many to come to Salvation and grow into a closer deep and personal relationship with Jesus!
Lots of Nappies + Other Staples for Children’s Home
For over 30 years, this very special home in Khayelitsha cares for orphans, abandoned children, and children from troubled homes – giving them medical care, love, dignity, education, and a chance at a better life. Our mission has partnered with them for many of those years, and this visit we were able to pass on blessings of nappies, fresh food, meat, formula, and cleaning supplies!
