Reaching the South African U

We have recently accepted an assignment to return to South Africa to plan and implement a ministry with the South African church to reach university students. The location is still to be determined, probably Johannesburg or Pretoria. We are excited to reach one of the most strategic and faith-challenged segments of this generation. Our goal is to partner with the national church to establish an effective, relevant, and sustainable outreach to initially one university. Long term, the hope is that a model of campus witnessing and fellowship can then be replicated to reach other universities. This effort will require new prayer and financial partners. Will you consider partnering with us to reach this key group? These students are not only the future leaders of South Africa, but of the entire continent of Africa. The universities of South Africa are gatherings of African leaders-to-be. Will you help the church reach them?

Yay! I'm so happy to hear that you guys will be back in South Africa! I'm looking forward to seeing you again. We're planning to head back to Rustenburg sometime in October (depending on our visas). We'll be praying for your process!!!!
