Vision Night - Feb 2012

Vision night is a night where the vision and track for the start of the year is imparted to Every Nation's leaders! We started the evening with a relaxed picnic, popcorn and enjoying the gathering of leaders from three congregations in Pretoria. There after awesome God centered praise & worship, followed by the vision casting = a blessed night!!!.

What really made this night so special is the story behind Every Nation Pretoria... It started with a group of about 20 students from Stellenbosch who responded to the call to go and plant a church in Pretoria. That group of 20 has now grown to 3 congregations in Pretoria East, Centurion and City Centre!!

This is the result of God's faithfulness when we respond in obedience. A group of 20 people grew to a room filled with leaders - who desire to honour God and advance His Kingdom!

Let's reach the 10%

From 21 - 25 November we had our anual regional campus leaders summit in Jeffreys Bay. More than 50 campus leaders and representitives came together to celebrate what God has done in 2011, revise on what worked and what needs to change and then to plan and strategise for what we want to achieve...

Our main objective is to reach the 10% - the tipping point. Scientists have found that when just 10% of the population holds an unshakable belief, their belief will always be adopted by the majority of the society. Read here.

Our aim is to reach 10%

of our campuses in Southern Africa and through reaching the 10% we can change the whole culture of a campus.

10% = more than 50 000 students!!!

This has truly been an amazing year. We have seen an alomst 10 % increase in the amount of students reached from 2010 (6900). Currently we have 115 full time campus staff on 31 campuses across Southern Africa and in 2011 we have seen 1812 students commit their lives to Christ! All glory to God!

We also had amzing times of worship, prophetic words, fellowship and just enjoying the J-bay weather.

It was incredible to be surrounded with so many young people who are passionate for God and His Kingdom and who are willing to lay down their lives to see His Kingdom come.

Thank you for the role that you played in making all of this possible!

One disciple at a time, one campus at a time, reaching every campus on our continent.

Praying for our nation...

This morning we had an amazing prayer time at the Union Buildings.

Due to the ANC youth league march going on at the Union Buildings this morning we decided to meet at a coffee shop nearby and decide from there whether or not to go to the Union Buildings.

We decided to go...

We entered through the bottom gate and walked to our normal prayer spot. Philippians 4:7 sais "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." This is literally what we experienced. Such a peace flowing from being in the presence of God.

Amidst reports of apparent violence we experienced such a peace as we prayed for our country, our leaders and the churches in South Africa. While we were there even more police forces came in aswell as special forces. We tried to approach some of the police officers to pray for them, but they were not open to it. We could really sence the anxiety in their hearts.

We prayed that the church would rise up in this nation and take her rightful place, bringing the peace of God into every area. God has got His hand over this nation and we need to trust Him. And the way we walk, talk and think must reflect this trust that we have in an Almighty God which will overflow into a peace that transcends all understanding...

Look at our beautiful city =)
