1 October 2022 Bokamoso has many children we help support in various ways across several different informal settlements. One settlement in particular struggles incredibly with drug and alcohol use and abuse. Sadly, many of our young 8 to 15-year-olds are already experimenting with different types of drugs and homemade cigarettes (that are very bad for …
Lending To The Lord
28 August 2022 The Lord has much to say in His Word regarding us being generous and giving to those in need, especially to the poor, widows, and fatherless. Nonetheless, at times we can become desensitized to the needs of those around us due to the overwhelming prevalence of those in need. Recently when sharing …
The Importance of Trust
30 July 2022 Hello Ermelo! 😁We had such a great time hanging out with the Bokamoso kids in Ermelo, Mpumalanga, at the end of July. They were so engaged as we shared a message of having hope for their lives. We read the story of Peter walking on the water and stepping out in faith, …
The Love of A Father
29 July 2022 We had driven 2.5 hours from Joburg to a township on the outskirts of a large agricultural town in Mpumalanga.

A New Settlement & A New Dance!

Give Us Our Daily Bread
18 March 2022 We received a call from a lady who has taken under her wings seven families who are struggling with little hope due to lack of work, funds, and no familial support. The majority of them are orphans and single mothers who have lost their income due to Covid 19 restrictions. Others were …
Simon Says… “Spin Around!”
27 February 2022 Shrieks of glee echoed off the tin walls as the game of “Simon Says” was offered…”Who wants to play?”…everyone! The kids laughed as Ryan once again tried to outsmart them. Up, down and around…using his best dance moves. Watching them laugh uncontrollably was such a reminder of what many of these children …
On A Mission In Mpumalanga!
26 January 2022 As Bokamos continued helping those in need in Mpumalanga during the month of January, we were blessed to be able to help families in the informal settlement of Wesselton. Door-to-door food parcel deliveries were made with 20 parcels being gifted to families in the greatest need. And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, …
