News - March 2012
REPORT BACK 2011
We focused our ministering mainly on the Eastern Cape in 2011 and ministered in 229 Schools in 8 towns. This included 7 tent & open air crusades, 6 prison crusades and 7 church plants. All in all, a little less than 150 000 people were reached with the Gospel.
There were however, some big challenges in the form of teenage pregnancy, demonic possession, witchcraft, drugs and orphaned children, for which we are constantly needing prayer and support.
INTO 2012
The Lord has shifted the focus of our ministry from being primarily evangelistic to an inclusion of all the five fold ministry gifts. We have therefore started establishing churches to accommodate the needs of discipleship and follow through.
There are 17 communities in which these churches are being established; focusing on reaching the community, discipleship and leadership development. We are also implementing the "Our Family" development programme in these communities.
School outreach is going strong and in Jan & Feb 2012, 72 schools have already been visited. In addition, we plan to visit another 180 schools, are planning an HPN Youth Conference, continuing to build the existing HPN branches and much more.
We now have 6 teams in our continued school outreaches and are formalising an Evangelism Training School.
We are also planning to implement a Chaplaincy Programme in schools, in which a leader will be identified to pastor the school and students.
Job Creation with "City Recycles"
We are undertaking a job creation initiative in recycling with City Recycles. Our aim is to create 5000 jobs. We have currently created a little less than 1000 jobs.
We need three crane trucks to service these potential clients - If anyone would like to help please contact our offices.
THANK YOU!
A Huge Thank You...
We wish to convey our heartfelt gratitude to the RaG team for the amazing gift of "Book of Hope." Countless lives have been blessed, touched and ministered to.
We are continuing to encourage the recipients of this precious resource to use it, share it and grow through it.
An appeal to our partners...
We would like to ask all our partners for your continued support as you pray and intercede on our behalf. There is tremendous resistance from the enemy in our mission, but by the grace of God we are continuing to stand.
The Lord has encouraged us by telling us that the work is a finished work!
God is faithful and has been leading us every step of the way. He is bringing unity in His church, which we find very exciting. We have recognised His passion for His church and the lost, which is indescribable. We also perceive an awakening in the Body of Christ, which is greatly encouraging, due to this being one of the areas we have been seeking the Lord in.
WE NEED ANY SUPPORT YOU CAN OFFER; PRAYER, DONATIONS, EXPERTISE, etc.
