About our Ministry
Eswatini (Swaziland) |

Prayer is the answer
Keep
on praying with us for a mighty breakthrough of the Holy Spirit
in the hearts of the people. There is opposition, but prayer is
the answer. Although many born again believers are strong in their
faith, there are many people in their communities living in bondage
of tradition and African religion. Many unsaved people are bound
by traditional ancestral worship and by consulting witch doctors
and traditional healers. |
|
Traditional healers
are regarded as physicians, prophets, priests, diviners and herbalists,
and about 80% of the people who are not born again believers consult
these practitioners, who are mostly male. The “inyanga” as they
are known, inherit their skills from their fathers and grandfathers
and they hold a senior place in society. The function of divination
involves throwing bones and interpreting the patterns in which
they fall. |
|
The “sangoma”
is a traditional diviner who has been called to the profession.
Generally women, they are consulted to alleviate physical and
mental problems, attend various ceremonies and act as counselors.
When divining, the sangoma traditionally relies on spirit possession. |

We have to keep on praying for the breaking down of demonic strongholds. Nothing is impossible with God and He is doing great and wonderful things. The gospel has to penetrate every community and village in remote Swaziland. That is the vision and what we are working for. Presently we are working in Mhlosheni and Emayiwane. It is indeed a wonderful privilege to be part of what God is doing in this mountainous country. Thank you for caring! |

Your sponsorship makes it
possible to care for orphans and widows in rural and remote Swaziland.
Each month your giving provides food, shelter and clothing. But
more than that, we also help to educate them with the Word of
God and teaching them the truth about salvation in Jesus Christ. Remember, God uses people just like you! He works through you and me to reach out to those in need, to change lives, heal the sick and hurting, and to care for orphans and widows. Stand with us and watch what God will do in your life! |
