This is a groundbreaking year for us: we have 11 interns in our Twenty4Seven internship program! After a very full week of orientation, the interns were officially welcomed into the family with a commissioning celebration this past weekend. Our interns will play a vital role in making ministry happen this year, all while gaining firsthand experience in what full-time missions is about. We believe God has called each one here for this specific time, and we can't wait to see all that He has in store! |

Year-Long Interns ArrivePreparing for LaunchPad Outreach Starts Early Welcome New Staff! Partner With Us  Over the last month we have been preparing for LaunchPad, our after-school discipleship program, to kick-off for the year. It’s exciting to hear from our students that they are ready for classes to start back up. "When are classes starting again? I've been waiting. Christmas was good but LaunchPad... It's better!" This year we are introducing courses in two new churches. One will be held in a new area of Qwa Qwa and the other in a village that has never before hosted a LaunchPad class. It’s exciting to see the Lord expanding our territory! |
The team focused on children's ministry. They worked with the handicapped children at Limakatso Disabled Center, visited the local hospital, and ran an afternoon children's club for the kids in Intabazwe. They were so full of energy and joy; they did a wonderful job displaying the love of Christ to everyone they met! See pictures in the team's photo gallery Read testimonies on our website |
