After Jesus’ first disciples encountered the risen Lord, they knew they had the ultimate message to share: Christ, our Living Hope! Today, believers like Delycia, Ockie, Leanie and Grantley are continuing to share the story of Jesus’ triumph over sin, shame and death with people in places where He is not known.
Likewise, we, as followers of Jesus, have the same good news to give to the 3 billion people living without hope.
Dancing into the arms of Jesus
Delycia's love for dancing has brought her closer to the ultimate love - the love of Jesus. She's continuing to live out this gift in various ways with the Ships ministry - using her unique skills!
Church of Acts rebuilds a house
Lenie and her husband Ockie work among the forgotten communities in Namaqualand, South Africa. Poverty and addictions are rampant, but when tragedy hit one of the community members, the couple called local believers into action.
From the living room straight onto mission field
When a countrywide lockdown entered the lives of South Africans, Grantley and the team had to come up with new ways to connect. To their surprise, the impact was more than they expected.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” – 1 Peter 1:3 (ESV)
