Galilee International Ministries Church: Hope Farm – Tshipise district, Limpopo
At the end of May 2013, we conducted our very first large scale outreach on Hope Farm in the rural area of the Tshipise District in the Limpopo Province.
This area is renowned for the export quality of citrus and other fruits and also has a brick manufacturing plant on the farm. Each year thousands of people from South Africa and neighbouring countries flock to this area in search of seasonal and full time work. The owner of the farm who is also associated with Doctors Without Borders, has opened a door for us to freely bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all the people.
At the end of the outreach weekend 30 people were baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins and a new church was been born and planted on Hope Farm. A year later (2014) this figure now stands at 53 souls being added to the Kingdom of God with many more still to come. Past Phineas is leading the church here with the support of Br Tinashe and specific sisters in the group while under the direct mentorship of our leadership team.
In the off-season period most people leave the farm and only return 6 months later, but the church has survived during these periods as the congregation is growing in the Spirit, wisdom from the Word as well as in numbers.
Currently we are training the new leadership of this congregation and supporting them with Bibles and other teaching material. We will host another outreach on the farm later in the year again. Great things for the Hope Farm Church is on the charts – watch this space!
