mission projects


Bhambayi

Project Leaders: Ben Aldous and Juliet Hartley

This township situated in the Inanda area was the home of Ghandi at the turn of the 20th century. The project is run and maintained by local community leaders alongside whom we work. Currently a preschool (Siyathuthuka Creche), a sewing project and home visits make up the bulk of the ministry. We also run a strategic project called Special Stars where church members can sponsor a child through school assisting with paying fees and providing uniforms.
