AN AFRICAN FOCUSED ON SEEING AFRICANS RAISED UP AS DISCIPLE-MAKERS FOR AFRICA... Dear brothers and Sisters, With joy I greet you, with love I greet you. Under the shelter of gods grace Ive been kept , and under the wings of his unfailing love Ive been resting . love the Lord God with all your heart, soul, strength and mind and love your neighbour as yourself. The lord is been very good, the lord is been moving miraculously in this township Im living and working and serving. Ive been in this township over 3 years, learning how to love my neighbour. when God called me to work and serve in this township. he showed me the vision of dry bones as he did to Ezekiel and I was able to see the need in my own nation. My eyes were opened and I saw poverty, what William Carey called the poverty of mind . When I rst came to serve as a devoted lover of Christ who was ready to love his neighbour with passion and compassion, the vision was to help them, but over time Ive realised they are helping me . My neighbours have taught me how to live for Christ, in the way Jesus spoke of in that verse (luke 10:27). Thank you for all the investments in prayer, friendship, kind words and nancial support. I truly treasure all support you have offered and offering. If you feel called to give towards the ministry or send me gift of any kind, please contact me from here. ( jalisbusiso@yahoo.com )

MAMA IRENE

Mama Irene..
This mama, (mama Irene), she is one faithful disciple of Jesus Ive watched grow . She accepted the lord and got baptized , last year after 2years of discipleship .she sells pillows and clothes colleted from people houses for living .she makes pillows by her own hands . She makes about 15rands($2) , in a day or less .but every time when I come visit to her house ,she has an unmeasured joy and peace .the praises to god of host doesnt leave her lips. She constantly sings, god has blessed my business. She has a group of women meeting at her house for a simple church .she is inspires me . She taught me to appreciate god for every blessings big or small .she taught me that joy doesnt come from the things I own by from the source that owns me(Jesus) . Akho... Akho was rejected by his father when his mother was still pregnant with him, his mother did the same when Akho was born, she was young and scared so she gave Akho to her mother to raise him .When the mother died, Akho had to go and live with his Aunt (his mothers oldest sister), who was a drunk .she brought different man to the house .so Akho was abused in the house and he ended up in the street. He hated his home, Akho confessed home was like hell for me, feel more safe in the streets. So Akho joined the gang, started using and smuggling drugs , robbing people and he will always end up in jail. So I adopted him to come stay with me. I help Akho to know the fathers love. Ive learnt that the common need Akho and Ongani shared was the lack of father gure in their lives. Akho was now changing, he fell in love with the word, he fell in love with Jesus. he started gathering his gangster friends for discovery bible studies(DBS).They followed him as he was following the lord .Akho adopted one of his gangster friend who now accepted the lord to come stay with us . Akho understand discipleship as a holistically lifestyle..continued across...
