Jesse Pads Lesotho update: 💖 🇱🇸

Just look at these busy hands, God bless them 🙏

Although the recent weather here has hampered the attendance of some of our precious volunteers, the sewing wheels have not stood still.

Just look at the progress that has been made...

Now that spring has arrived we look forward to gaining some normality and momentum 🙏

However, after taking stock of our material supply, I realised we are critically low on toweling... and quickly depleting our cotton flannel stocks.

Please will you consider commiting to a monthly donation or a once off gift so we can keep this and our other ministries going.

**(Sadly the Jesse&Co ministry bank account currently only has 1 faithful doner...leaving the income at a critically low R1000pm)

🙏Your help, will help us, help others

Its been our second winter here since we arrived in Feb 2025 and one thing is abundantly clear: The weather is harsh!

I'ts harsh on everything... the kids needing to go to school, the animals that generally have no shelter and also not surprisingly, (amongst many other things) also on our ministry...

The simple answer for why our regular biblestudy, and Jesse Pads Sewing class attendees drop so severely is for this simple reason: The extreme cold weather, the howling and gusting gail force winds, the knee deep snow... in a place where the form of transport is your feet, grace is a prerequisite.

Join us as we pray for all our disciples who continue to survive this harsh climate, may God take mercy on us and send favorable weather for meeting and Discipling 🙏

Ps: Significant show is forecasted again for later this week 🙏

Bolo ena e felile! (This ball is finished)

This ball, or whats left of it 🫣, is a testimony to the fun the young ones had during their winter school holiday... and just like this balls life has come to a sad end, so to did the winter holiday, as school started back up today...

It is also a testimony to Gods provision through the many people who donate items to our ministry here... whether it be a ball, or school socks, or grey school trousers, or jerseys or sanitary pads or stationary... every little bit helps us reach out to someone in need...

A pair of second hand grey school socks (from Clarendon Park Primary school) and a pair of flip-flops recently helped a teen who was walking around barefoot (in this frigid cold) because she had no shoes...

So bless each and everyone who helps us, help others ⚘️💞

The Gospel of John featured at the Agricultural exhibition 🙌👑...

We were so happy to recieve a personal invite a month ago to this much awaited anual Agricultural "show & tell"...

I'm sure you, just like me, will be astounded at the amount of talent found here amoung these humble people... here nobody boasts...

Our table was nothing as exciting as the rest, but what was extremely exciting, was the amount of Sesotho "Gosple of John" booklet we handed out and were eagerly recieved by all...

I couldn't help but be atleast a little bit proud also to see some preserved food items that I've had a hand in teaching other to make... because our mission here has always been, to firstly teach and share the word of God, and secondly also be a blessing in practical ways...

Thanks to our friends from "The Fellowship full gospel church" for the donation of Gospel of John booklets that we were able to hand out...

Together we can better advance Gods Kingdom 🙌👑

Our Wednesday have become wonderfully playful...

We had such fun today with the young ones from our area... today's theme was "Forgiveness"

The teens amazed us by willingly reading both our scriptural references (Ephesians 4 vs 32 and Colossians 3 vs 13) not just from the Sesotho Bible but also in English...

Gary lead us with some lively songs with his guitar and the children gradually grew in confidence and sang the new song we presented to them today...

The coloring-in was a sure highlight for all especially once Gary brought out a few "prizes" and added a little competition to the mix...

We were blown away by their talent... notice the tiny little person (5yrs old)who shocked us all with her artistic ability.

Looking forward to next time 💗

"Winter Wednesday Movies" almost exploded onto the scene...

This past Wednesday we kicked off with our midweek-midday christian entertainment for the young ones (and young at heart), who are currently on their 2 month winter break / school holiday.

The months of hording "cardboard recycling" had come in very handy with the covering of the hall windows... dimming the sunlight just enough... the projector, laptop, cables and generator was all ready, but the minute we started the generator the popping noises started and like lightning we pulled every possible cable from the power... all we smelled was smoke!

I PRAYED! And phoned a friend... within 20 minutes another generator came bouncing over the rough Lesotho terrain in a wheelbarrow.

The 1st movie afternoon was a huge success! And everyone is already excited for next week's movie.

Praise be to God our Father for sparing our electronic equipment and providing a new source of power! And the amazement on the little faces when Jonah was swallowed by the "big fish" 🐋 was something so special to behold 😍

Pretty colours for our newbies ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

We had such fun again recently, as Gary led our newest Bible study group in a special craft of making ribbon and bead biblemarkers.

The ladies were so sweet and could'nt wait to slot the ribbons into the pages where we had been reading most recently, as last week's homework was quite a big chunk and they all felt the need to spend some more time mining Gods word 🙌👑💗
