Marc and Judie have been serving the Lord in Africa for many years. Most of these years have been in Southern Africa. They have 3 grown children also working in South Africa.

Their main thrust is church planting. They are working with the following Multilingual team that makes up their collective church planting outreach efforts:

  • Faith Fellowship in Durbanville North
  • Paarl Valley Congregation
  • Swartland Baptist Church in Malmesbury
  • Tygerberg Baptist

Prayer Requests

  • Pray that they will rightly identify the people and projects that need their focus and attentive love.
  • Pray that they will see many more saved, and discipleships move forward.
  • Pray for counseling to take root and congregations to grow.
  • Pray for couples to be stabilized and families get involved in more ministry.
  • Pray that the people will better understand the necessity of holiness in life.
  • Pray that each congregation will have a loving commitment to one another.
  • Pray that they might use every encounter with unbelievers as an opportunity to witness for Christ.

They are also involved in these church help ministries:

  • Church Ministries Institute – apprenticeship training.

    Young adults taking leadership and being involved more deeply in evangelism outreach. Pray for student preachers to develop.

  • Paardeberg Mt. Retreat – camp ministry.

    Camp season sees hundreds of children flowing through the camp.

    July is the concentrated camp ministry led by the 20’s age group and a few married couples.

  • The Afrikaans and Multi-lingual Team – discover more effective and practical church planting methods that are usable in the churches.

  • On-going Requests

    • Judie’s efforts to keep her diabetes under control.
    • Keep growing in their walk with the Lord, and more controlled by the Spirit in their relationships and attitudes toward others.
    • Remain committed to maintaining their physical health to be spiritually effective.
    • Relationships with family, friends, and supporters will glorify the Lord.
    • To be more communicative of Christ’s love, to manifest Christ more clearly and more directly to every South African possible.
    • To not compromise God’s Word, and feed meat to those that can handle it.
