It is the end of the year and as is customary I would like to say a few words of thanks to all our donors, supporters and beneficiaries. We look back at 2024 and note: God is good! Thanks to  all of you Heart for Children  collected just over R200000 to provide gas stoves to all homes of the Rehoboth Children’s village near Port Shepstone plus complete solar power for the education-, distribution- and activity center, respectively. This will make them less dependent on power from ESKOM so that most activities can carry on if there is a power outage. We have also been able to carry on with our regular support of the children’s homes that we are committed to. Many thanks to all of you who contributed this year to achieve these fabulous results. I know times are still quite tough, but we know that the King is with us, in us. It is Christmas!!

Proposal for a new project for 2025

Our financial director, Philip Nicholson, has recently joined the board of the “Guardians of Hope” (GoH), an organization that facilitates rescue and assistance in East London to a maximum of ca. 30 babies and small children. Instead of providing for daily necessities as was originally intended (for which we have already received ca. R2500 – many thanks to you!!! ), Heart for Children has now been asked by GoH to provide for a canvas roof for a certain area near the home. The cost is R59000. We think that this is a good project. If you have not yet done so, please take a few minutes to watch this video of GoH:

For more information, you can also go to the GoH website: Guardians of Hope | Place of safety Will you help us again? We decided to extend this special fundraising effort during 2025 for as long as is necessary to reach the target. (Together with your donation, please use your name and the word ‘hope’ in the reference).

Thanks to some of you – especially Christine in Empangeni, – thank you so much!!! – we are still able to keep the ministry of Crystal Cathedral Ministries SA / Bread On The Water on the internet.

Did you get the internet link to the CD with carols that we sent to you by SMS? Just listen to it on your device with your headphones on. Be blessed by listening to these holy songs again! Click here: It is time for Christmas carols! | Heart for Children

We wish you a wonderful Christmas and a very blessed New Year!

If you must travel, please drive carefully, and, whilst driving, forget about your phone! May God bless you richly,
