Johannesburg

Written by One Year Expedition on May 12, 2023. Posted in One Year Expedition 2023. No Comments on Johannesburg

The Fire of the Holy Spirit and it’s gifts experienced. Often times, we are not present because subconsciously, we believe that the next moment will be more important than the present one and before you know it, you missed what is happening now. Johannesburg was a perfect representation of this. Excited to fly to Israel, our team thought of Johannesburg as a stop to get our visas before we get on a plane, but the Lord taught us to be present in what He is doing in Johannesburg and not let our next ministry point distract us. The body of Christ in Johannesburg is admirable. Although there are...

Eswatini

God has planned out every step, allow the Holy Spirit to lead you. Placed in the heart of Eswatini, we sat at the feet of the one who created it all. We had the privilege of camping in a garden, where every tree, flower and animal reflects God’s Glory.

Mozambique

Redefining our outlook of what ministry looks like. Investing in the present, for the future, while trusting God to continue the work you started. This is what Mozambique was like for most of us. Throughout our journey and adventures here, we got to work hard, play hard and experience God’s glory regularly. Our hosts were a finely put together combo of Mozambicans and South Africans who ministered alongside us. Whether it was to de-bush a small yet trying piece of land, that would soon be a safe-haven for orphans, or to spend time playing soccer with locals and then worshiping with them, we...

Makhathini – Unified Diversity

Written by One Year Expedition on March 13, 2023. Posted in One Year Expedition 2023. 2 Comments on Makhathini – Unified Diversity

A place close to home, yet so different. Culture, language and so much more, defines a people group. Love and care is something fundamental, all of us appreciate and need it, but what does this practically look like in your culture? We had the privilege to live a semi-local life for two weeks here in Makhathini. Our hosts blessed us so much during our stay and almost everyone on the team can agree that Makhathini is a special place. From our short visit, we can testify that this place is filled with good stewards, truly caring communities and cows… yes you heard me, cows, chickens goats and...
