Zambia Boys on Holiday

Augustine,Luxon and Calvyn are boys who walked from Zambia to Cape Town at the age of fourteen. they are currently living at the Multi Recreational Centre in Salt River where we do ministry work every Wednesday.













December 2010 there were nine boys who still needed to be placed for the holidays and Chris and Ursula Boonzaaier family decided to take into there homes these three boys aged between 14 and 17 years old. They enjoyed Christmas lunch with them and going into the New Year as well as other outings like a trip to the Farmyard, Movies, Swimming and the games Arcade. They enjoyed having the boys for the holidays getting to know them and their cultures. Augustine loves to learn and always willing to teach the younger boys what he knows, he also loves writing songs. Augustine has a real passion for God and knows if God can take him out where he was he can do anything.



Luxon is a very quiet person and does not talk much but has a very gentle spirit, he longs to go back home to his family in Zambia. Calvyn is a scout leader in Zambia, very creative person and loves training with the weights. He loves his Zambia "pap" and is very talkative and has lots of questions about everything and misses his sister very much.





Chris and Ursula was really blessed having the boys by them for the holidays and trust that there will be other opportunities to do it again.

A Day Of Fun!


We surprised some of the kids from Blikkies Dorp and the Multi Recreational Centre in Pickwick street Salt river after church on Sunday telling them we were taking them to the movies.


We spent the day having lunch first and then went off to see a movie, the children were very excited having to choose which movie that wanted to see. Having different age groups not all could watch th same movie so we split into two groups, Deon went with the younger ones to watch Megamind and Chris and Ursula went with the older group watched ' The Tourist'.






Our daughters bonded with the girls from Blikkies Dorp and it was nice to see how children can just be children and forget about everything else and enjoy themselves. We have been doing ministries for five years but it seems that God is really moving and touching the children as they are the ones that comes to church and don't want to miss a Sunday or an opportunity to come to the Impact Centre to learn more about the Holy Spirit!

What Lies Ahead for 2011!

Wow, what a year it has been, there were highs and there were low. It has been a tough year for me but at the end of it some exciting things happened that changed my outlook on things.

I am excited for 2011 has to offer me, i know that God has heard my prayers and he will come through at the right time. The Rlabs new office space is quiet exciting knowing i will be apart of changing other women lives the way mine was changed through social networking. It is amazing the attention you get if they think you part of the Network medias because the other day i had my MXit t-shirt on and was by cellphone network and one of the workers asked me if i work for Mxit.. i had to laugh. Girls stop me and tell me they love my sweater, i felt so important :)

My philosophy for this year is to take every opportunity by the horns and give it the best that i have to offer. I am going to be learning about setting up my own Domain but still thinking of a name for it. I know it will be a name that will become very successful and who knows maybe my dream to travel the world will become a reality!
