Helping the San help themselves

THE Emmanuel Kingdom Missions has been working with the San community of about 400 people at Bravo Camp, about 100 km north of Tsumeb, for the past three years.

They provide spiritual guidance, financial assistance, food and clothing donations and help with community upliftment. They have also set up a tent which serves as a church and planted a vegetable garden which the community maintains so that they can become self-sufficient.Dries Tredoux of Itec had read about the plight of the San community and when he came across the Emmanuel Kingdom Mission he was driven to do something to help this worthy cause.He donated N$1 000 and his whole staff contributed by donating food.”In this season of giving we decided to help the Emmanuel Kingdom Missions, as they help the community not only for the season but on a long-term basis to improve the lives of the whole community and to eventually make them self-sufficient,” says Tredoux.He has challenged other companies to donate generously in the spirit of Christmas.”The main focus of Emmanuel Kingdom Missions at Bravo Camp is community upliftment through spiritual and physical projects for the San,” says Jaco Scholtz of Emmanuel Kingdom Missions.The missionaries have also vaccinated all the goats that were donated to the community by the Namibian Government.People who are interested in making a contribution to the community, can phone Jaco Scholtz at 081 127 1813 or Marilyn at (061) 24 1444.They have also set up a tent which serves as a church and planted a vegetable garden which the community maintains so that they can become self-sufficient.Dries Tredoux of Itec had read about the plight of the San community and when he came across the Emmanuel Kingdom Mission he was driven to do something to help this worthy cause.He donated N$1 000 and his whole staff contributed by donating food.”In this season of giving we decided to help the Emmanuel Kingdom Missions, as they help the community not only for the season but on a long-term basis to improve the lives of the whole community and to eventually make them self-sufficient,” says Tredoux.He has challenged other companies to donate generously in the spirit of Christmas.”The main focus of Emmanuel Kingdom Missions at Bravo Camp is community upliftment through spiritual and physical projects for the San,” says Jaco Scholtz of Emmanuel Kingdom Missions.The missionaries have also vaccinated all the goats that were donated to the community by the Namibian Government.People who are interested in making a contribution to the community, can phone Jaco Scholtz at 081 127 1813 or Marilyn at (061) 24 1444.
