South Africa: Buddy Meets Joel Watson

Hi, girls and boys! I'm here in South Africa with missionary Joel Watson. He's reaching kids for Jesus in a city called Durban and setting up new churches. Download his missionary thank you letter below and add it to your BGMCKids' Passport binder!

Hi! I'm Joel Watson, a missionary to Durban, South Africa.  Thanks to BGMC kids like you, we have been able to purchase a PA system that has helped us reach the kids here in Africa for Jesus.

Our goal in one year alone was to plant 30 new churches. We needed help with our evangelism on the streets and in the parks. We are often in townships or parks, which require quick setups and breakdowns.

The need for sound systems in multiple locations all at the same time stretched our limited resources to the max. It had come to the place where some of our ministry efforts would have to be postponed.  

This gift from BGMC could not have come at a better time. It allowed us to do multiple outreaches.

Every church we have planted includes a strategic method for reaching and discipling the children in that community. It is key to our success. Thank you for the tireless efforts you exert in making things like this possible.
