LIG VIR DIE WÊRELD - FEES - VTM - WMM-EXPO:

Betekenisse van Begrippe:

  • VTM =VOORTREKKER MONUMENT
  • WMM-EXPO = World Missions Mobilization Expo (Wat gaan fokus op die Bewusmaking van Wêreldsending en die ondersteuning van Sendelinge in hulle Nood en Behoeftes)

Hiermee die nuutste terugvoer daaroor. 

NEEM KENNIS - Nadat ons op 'n stadium gehuiwer het... 

DIS NOU FINAAL: JA! DV GAAN ONS VOORT!

TEKEN DIE DATUM AAN: 14-15 MAART 2025


Eerstens, Bid asb. ernstige saam met ons hiervoor. Dit kan 'n groot hupstoot op baie terreine wees. Vir die Sending en die Kerk. Bid asseblief saam oor die Beplanning en as dit die Here se wil is, die realisering van die Droom.

ONS DOELWIT MET HIERDIE SENDING-EKSPO IS DRIE-LEDIG: 

1) Sending-bewusmaking: 'n Geleentheid waar Sendingorganisasies en  Sendelinge  aan 'n meer sekulêre gehoor (nie die gewone kerklike omgewing nie) hulle bedienings kan uitstal, bekendstel en hulle netwerke kan uitbou.

2) Fondsinsameling vir Sending: Alle winste van die Fees sal uiteindelik aan die Sendingorganisasies wat amptelik registreer en uitgestal het, gelykop verdeel en aan hulle uitbetaal word. 

3) Heel Belangrikste: Op hierdie LIG VIR DIE WÊRELD-FEES gaan ons almal ons lig laat skyn; 'n Lig vir die Wêreld wees! Teenoor mekaar en teenoor alle ander uitstallers en besoekers - sodat die hele Pretoria en Suid-Afrika daarvan gaan kennis neem. 

ONS BEPLANDE PROGRAM: 
Ons Beplanningsgroep doen ons bes met 'n UITSTAANDE PROGRAM om soveel moontlik Besoekende Feesgangers te betrek -  Behalwe die Sendingorganisasies wat gaan uitstal...
- 'n Uitnodiging aan almal wat Markte bedryf (verkopers van kos, enige wettige produkte of klein besighede). 
- Uitnodiging aan alle Parkrun-Groepe van Pretoria om op die datum (ONTHOU = 15 Maart!) by die VTM-Parkrun in te skakel en by ons program gaan inskakel.
- Daar is nog verskeie ander verassings wat ons later gaan deel (Bekende Sangers, Kore, met 'n Koorkompetisie word reeds die vorige aand beplan word, met die wenkore wat die Saterdag gaan optree;  Jukskei, die Motorfiets-mense, Fietse en nog.. en nog) 
- Die vriendelike VTM-personeel help ons om die Fees vir alle besoekers net een groot Fees van Pret en Genot te maak. 

Onthou die Datum:  DV 14-15 Maart 2025

INVITATION LETTER TO ALL MISSION ORGANISATIONS

ATTENTION ALL MISSION ORGANISATIONS/MISSIONARIES



Dear Mission friends,

I want to share some exciting news with you...

YES - WE DEFINITELY CONTINUE WITH THE PLANS

IT'S NOW FINAL: YES! WE CONTINUE WITH THE MISSION FEST.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE DATE: 14-15 MAART 2025

PLEASE READ AND RESPOND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ALSO SHARE THIS WITH ALL YOUR MISSIONARY FRIENDS.

We plan a World Missions Mobilization – Expo (WMM-Expo) at the Voortrekker Monument (VTM) in Pretoria on Saturday 15 th March 2025. Preparations will already start on the Friday 14 March.

This will be under the Banner LIG VIR DIE WêRELD-FEES (LIGHT FOR THE WORLD FEST).

All interested Christian Missionaries or Mission Organizations are invited to join us in also presenting your Ministry there.

This WMM-Expo will give exposure to Missions in a more secular environment while we will have the opportunity to be the salt and the light among a broader audience than our regular Church communities.

Exhibitors can use their own initiative on how to use the space allocated to them, providing their own table, chairs and overhead gazebo, posters and banners,  pamphlets to show or distribute, anything to build a new network of supporters for their ministry.

Although our aim is Mission Awareness, one of our focusses will be on raising extra funds for Missions (Yes, in support of all the registered Missionary participants that are active exhibitors during that day).

For this reason, our arrangement with the VTM-management is that all profit, after all expenses were subtract (more detail about this will follow later), will be divided among all registered participants.

The secret for the success of the day is to maximize the number of visitors that join our programs during the day. For this reason, we plan further initiatives as attractions for more people to the day. That includes the invitations of flee marketers (anybody that sell food and other homemade stuff; secular organizations that want to advertise their businesses (like a property agent), etc.

We further plan to invite some Gospel singers during the day.

Also, other interesting programmes like  a “jukskei” competition are part of the plans. Further, people can visit all the museum sights in and around the monument terrain during the day.

NOTE: Mission Organizations that want to join this initiative please join our WhatsApp Group to at least indicate your interest. From here we will communicate further details of how to register as an exhibitor as it becomes available. 

Please join this Group here…  LIGHT FOR THE WORLD MISSION EXPO: 14-15 Maart 2025 - https://chat.whatsapp.com/GPNa1UtMX42IqwjLcw2QKn

MEGAVOICE - To finish 2024 well and to begin 2025 well.




To finish 2024 well and to begin 2025 well.

In the Bible, we learn how the Lord commanded his children to erect a memorial with 12 stones from the Jordan River.   "So these stones shall be to the people of Israel a memorial forever." - Joshua 6:7.  Getting close to the end of 2024 and the time to reflect on the birth of our Saviour, let's also reflect on the question "How to finish well?"  Paul wrote to Timothy when he was nearing the end of his life: "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing."  2 Timothy 6:7-8.

If we follow Christ and are in a relationship with him, we will finish well and be well. If we are not in Christ, our money, education, achievements, and status are of no importance. These temporal things will soon pass, but our relationship with Christ is for eternity. 

It is comforting that we cannot and need not rely on our efforts to finish well.  It is by grace and the work on the Cross that we can finish well.  In this year we all came short in some instances, and we have seen others not doing well. Let's pray for them and ourselves to remain focused on the One who is our Master and Saviour.

Let's reflect on our relationship with Him before we begin 2025.

God Bless
Johan Grobler

Continuous improvement is one of our values.

"Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving."
Colossians 2:6-7 ESV

Thank you for helping us to reach important milestones.


2024 was a special year and here are some of the milestones.
  • New Media Centres - Ethiopia, Namibia, and Nigeria
  • Growth in distribution to South Sudan and Sudan
  • Fundraising is growing
  • Audio Bible a Month Club is growing. Read more info on the ABMC
  • We were able to attend more events than in previous years - Missions Expo, CRE, Lausanne Congress, South Pacific Bible Forum, NRB.
Five of the top 10 countries where Christians are persecuted for their faith are in Africa. In 2023 about 5000 people worldwide were murdered for their faith.

We focus on Nigeria at the moment.  Violence by Islamic extremist groups such as Fulani militants, Boko Haram, and ISWAP (Islamic State in West African Province) increased recently.

Johan and Tom after having a quick lunch in Drummoyne
Johan had the privilege of visiting Tom Treseder the founder of MegaVoice Australia in November.  Tom at 91 is doing well and his ongoing contribution to MegaVoice is an example and blessing to all.

During this time Johan visited Geelong, spoke at three churches, and met with several partners and supporters.  It was a fruitful and productive time with Geoff and Brenda Warren.  Johan also met with Kevin Keegan, the CEO of MegaVoice Global Australia, based in Sydney.

We pray for MegaVoice Global Australia to grow and prosper in 2025.
