An early Saturday morning and we arrived at the Habitat for Humanity site office in Mfuleni, ready to work! After dedicating the day's labour to God, the His People Tokai volunteers set off to do some housepainting at a newly-built home a few streets away.
Habitat for Humanity is a Christian housing ministry that to date has built over 350 000 houses around the world. We met the homeowner William and could sense his excitement at seeing his home so close to completion. We as volunteers had a "let's get dirty" opportunity to partner with him! As a beneficiary William not only invests his own labour and hours of his time into the building of his own home, but also helps with the completing of homes that belong to others in his community. Please pray for the Building on Faith week happening from the 13th to the 17th September this year. His People will be involved in this annual event designed to be an awesome opportunity for churches to show God's love in a very practical way.

Later this month I will be heading to the Every Nation world conference in Manila, Philippines. The conference is a once every 3 year event where members of the Every Nation family get together for an awesome time of worship and fellowship. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to form new friendships with others in the Every Nation family! 
While there, my friend and mentor Selena and I will also be facilitating training with the Real Life Foundation, a compassion ministry dedicated to seeing marginalised Filipino youth uplifted. Please pray for us as we do preparation that God will speak powerfully into the lives of the participants during the training.
