On Sunday, 2 November 2025 the church in KwaNoxolo, with the support of the Field Welfare department hosted an outreach program with the purpose of distributing pamphlets, clothes and food to the community.
This initiative was motivated by the unemployment and poverty in the community as many children go to bed hungry and at time adults as well.
The Welfare Outreach was a success. People came in numbers young and old. We saw some return wishing for a second serving of bread and soup. Some even went back home to call friends and neighbors. With smiles on their faces, they accepted the clothing and most importantly the literature about the Sabbath.
The community expressed their gratitude and were very appreciative of what the church has done for them.
The main challenge in the KwaNoxolo community is food security. What this experience has shown us is the impact of outreach programs can have on a community. Our challenge now is to find a sustainable way to continue.
In the future we would like to have Welfare Outreach programs once or twice each month. Our plan for KwaNoxolo church is to create a vegetable garden which will support this initiative so that more people may be fed.
As a department our desire is to have a community outreach program in every local church in our field as it will support the mission of the church – spreading the Gospel to everyone. We praise the Lord for the opportunity to work for Him. Please, keep the community and brethren of KwaNoxolo in your prayers.
