We are back online. Cant wait to share what has been happening

What's the best thing about doing youth ministry and working with youth?

It's watching the power of God work. From the cynical to the full on fire. It's truly amazing

Good morning crazy followers of Jesus. That's right we are all crazy - crazy in love with the Big JC.

Today I woke up remember the first time I was on happening. It's an intense weekend camp for youth aged 16 and up. The point of this weekend is to meet Jesus in your face no turning back kinda thing. And boy do you meet him. It's the most on fire experience I have ever had.

Anyway the staff who are all youth come round to your rooms singing and playing the guitar and tambourines and wake you up and give you a bright yellow or white daisy.
And the crazy thing is that song was playing in my head this morning.

So I wanted to say "Arise and shine for the glory of the Lord has come"

Time to have praise and worship

We finally did it! Challenge is out to all youth - your turn

Please stand with us in prayer we are about to make some changes and we really need God to show us the way.

Checkout how this video is moving. Such an inspiration. We need to get our South Africans just as on fire.

This is the biggest trending youth song on social media.

It has gone viral

Jesus is coming. We are in the last days and our mission is to get the youth on fire for the Lord. The youth of today are too distracted and led away. They have been sorting of forgotten by their local churches in South Africa who honestly have not had resources. But we know how to do this from scratch.

I have personally setup and worked in various youth groups in various denominations. We started all of them with nothing. One even started under a tree.

While the term "youth ministry" is a modern construct, Jesus' teachings and actions have significant implications for working with young people. His emphasis on discipleship, love, and the importance of children provides a framework for youth ministry. Key areas where Jesus addresses youth ministry include the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20), the principle of loving God and neighbor (Matthew 22:37-38), and his interactions with children (Matthew 18:2-4).

1 Timothy 5:1-2 encourages leaders to treat younger men as brothers and younger women as sisters, reflecting a spirit of care and support for young people within the church.

So Coffee on the Rock is designed to set up youth groups, activities both at venues and online. We also do a lot of workshops and gatherings to help support single parents. We used to be able to give food parcels and clothing to single parents but donations in South Africa have become non-existant.

We have a husband and wife missionary team in the field at the moment with their 2 toddlers. They honestly rely on whatever donations we can send them as for accommodation and for food. The town they are in right now is so dry. The fire is not there and they have been scorned by so many in the town. We leave it on the Lord's hands he will show if we need to leave that place, shake the dust off of the feet and move on.

So here we ask for a few things:
Prayer:
For our mission to help bring youth to the Lord and build good solid youth groups.
For our missionary team who right now really needs funding.
For the next town the Lord has us to go to. We have taken up the same guidance as Jesus said to his disciples go from place to place.

If anyone needs the help of our missionary team please contact us. We will come.

Looking for the Ultimate Parent and Child Bonding weekend. Jesus instructed us to teach our children his ways. Life gets busy and we need to go through some rebonding with the ones we love.

We feel so privileged and truly humbled that the Lord sent us this platform. And now to be a part of it. We can't wait to chat, meet or see you at one of our pop ups. We can't wait to even be of service to any ministry that would love to have us.

Please note we currently also run an Online/ Virtual Flea Market to help our ministry. It's hosted "Live" every 2 weeks on WhatsApp.
Our next one is on the 7th June and we have all our vendors constantly listed on our app and we would love to have you all go and see and support. We will share more with you as we grow and move forward.

All our love and prayers this cold Sunday Evening.
