We are convinced that the Bible gives us essential guidelines for a successful, happy and fulfilled life. Motivating children to be all they can be comes from activating a personal knowledge within each heart that one is valued, unique, and important in the eyes of God. Through character-building classes, personal counseling, and group activities, we aim to light in each person’s heart a fire for progress and start to change their future, today.

With each box sorted by size and labeled with the recipient’s name, we loaded up and set off for a youth home in Phillipi – excited to give each resident these brand new donated shoes! We met with the young people, house father, and staff, and were able to give a short talk on the Love of Jesus to all 36 men and women, as well as sing a Gospel song together. Then, into the hands went the boxes! Everyone eagerly opened, examined, and tried on their shoes, with smiles and laughter abounding. We then found out that for the majority, this is the first new pair of shoes they’ve ever owned. To close, we gave each young person a Gospel comic book with messages from Jesus. What a wonderful time!
Our Sunday School at Easter was even more special than usual this year.
The children wholeheartedly sang songs of praise to the Lord, remembering His victory over death itself!
They also talked about the meaning of the death and Resurrection of our precious Saviour, sharing lessons and insights.
Of course there was also much cheer about the impromptu Easter egg hunt and the bags of goodies each child received. Easter celebrations all round!
