Jani is a member of this group that shares the dream to make a difference in people’s lives. God has a plan will for every person’s life and this is just some part of the big calling He has for us. Helping people is our passion and part of our lives. Starting this Foundation is a dream comes true! We believe that God will send the right people to join and invest in this Foundation to make a bigger difference in His kingdom!

Jani is a pharmacist that works and lives in Hartbeespoort. Helping people is part of her daily job and a passion that God placed in her heart. She likes to help people, not only by giving medicine but to tell them about the love Jesus has for them. She likes to invest in people to encourage them to become better versions of themselves, by aligning them with the calling God has for them.

Living by the calling God has for you, will make you the happiest person. God will never fail you. Just imagine if people on earth lived the calling God has for them, this would be a different world we live in!

May this Foundation change more lives than we could ever dream of. This is my prayer to every person that gets in contact with this Foundation: “I ask Him to strengthen you by His Spirit—not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength—that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite Him in. And I ask Him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you’ll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ’s love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its length! Plumb the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God.

God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us.

Glory to God in the church!
Glory to God in the Messiah, in Jesus!
Glory down all the generations!
Glory through all millennia!” (Ephesians 3:14-21 MSG)

Paul is one of the members of this group of friends who responded when they recognised the need amongst the people in our country. He realised that they need to do something bigger than themselves, which really needed God to intervene and make it successful.

Paul is a real estate Principal, living in Hartbeespoort in the North West province. Due to the nature of his work, he loves to be involved in the marketing side of this Foundation. He was involved in prison ministry for about 12 years and it was time in 2018 to pass the baton to other people in the prison ministry and to grab a new baton in this ministry.

“We dream big with this very important ministry, much bigger than any of our team members can do ourselves. We trust God to move the mountains and to make everything possible, for His glory and Kingdom’s sake alone.”

Paul van Loggerenberg – Director

 

Jesus is in the business of transforming lives and He wants to help those in need. He does it by using people. I want to be one of those who is led by the Lord to establish His Kingdom and His love in this world.

I am an engineer and also do some project management and other project related activities. I like to see things built and established that once was not there.

May God be the builder of this Foundation and may He be the HOPE we bring.
