Ha Makopela Outreach
Two weeks ago we returned home from an incredible week of serving, laughing, loving, playing, praying, ministering, listening, and sharing in the mountain village of Ha Makopela.

Beat the Drum Follow-Up: Abstinence Clubs
When the Beat the Drum outreach concluded on 9th August, the team had to say goodbye to the students they had so quickly come to know and love.

Discipleship Takes Discipline

It’s always our prayer that those four days … Continue reading
