Mission Georgia – Johan is all in for Mission Georgia. He sees the desperate need for the Lord in his Country of Georgia. He starts out with a broad discussion of his involvement with Mission Georgia.
“My name is Johan Labuschagne married to Marina and we live in the Republic of Georgia. We registered the healing rooms in Georgia known as “The Fathers House” in April 2010. The Fathers House is open 2 days a week, and the people come from as far as 300km. We also use the internet through Skype & Face book to minister internationally to people in Italy, USA, Ireland, Turkey, Russia, South Africa and in Georgia. God continues to do miracles at the Healing Rooms & via internet; salvations, deliverance, counselling & healing’s.”
Mission Georgia needs encouragement and support. Labuschagne continues about how they support Mission Georgia.
“By invitation we come alongside village pastors to encourage them and assist within the village churches & with rural outreaches. We bring a fresh Word of God, evangelise, and pray for the sick, hand out reading spectacles, 2nd hand clothing & bibles in communities. Transport however poses a bit of a problem at times, as public transport is not always available to the remote places.”
Many children are getting reached through Mission Georgia.
“The majority of the street children we minister to are of Kurdish background and Muslim in their faith. They are often viewed as a nuisance to those who walk the streets because of their aggressive persistence in begging for money. Here we feed them, teach bible lessons, teach them to read & write, craft lessons & play games/sports with them.”
Large amounts of youth are converting because of Mission Georgia.
“We work in an Armenian village in Georgia with a preschool and youth and had a very successful youth camp where 40 children gave their heart to the Lord. The camp was held during September holidays for one week.”
Other youth ministries are being used through Mission Georgia.
“We work closely with other ministries including- Teen Challenge, Post Abortion, various interdenominational churches and YWAM. They refer people to us for counselling, healing, prayer & deliverance.”
Johan Labuschagne gave his life to the Lord for Mission Georgia.
“I gave my heart to the Lord when I was 16 years old during a youth camp. I spend most of my life in the military (27 years) half of it in operational service where all the questions started. My wife passed away and there were more questions. In April 2007 I got married to a Georgian lady and in September 2007 we returned to South Africa & became radically saved in May 2008 at a “Catch the Fire” convention held in Durbanville South Africa. The first 3 days I felt there must be more and was asking the Lord to touch and use me, well He did touch me and it felt like a heart attack when I open my eyes I was on the floor and a lot of people around me. This all happened during a worship session and my life and family changed.”
Johan has a strong Christian dream for Mission Georgia.
“Our Dream is to continue being a shining light for Jesus as on a hill, giving the Bread of Life to the hungry & bringing Living Water to the thirsty. Rising up New generation. Video clip about 4/14. The scholarship at CLI is a dream come true to equip me and better prepare me to teach the word. 2 Tim 2:15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 1 Tim 3:2 Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach.”
Johan finishes by asking for prayer with Mission Georgia.
“My prayer requests are the following, That the Lord give us wisdom and favor with the church leaders to accept the 4/14 vision for children. That we wil have a 4 X 4 Vehicle for outreaches. A Better facility for street ministry as the house we use is not in good condition. Finally, support to have more youth camps in the villages (small towns) were we work in.”
Johan has completed the Christian Basics Certificate. He continues to pursue Mission Georgia and his education thanks to generous donors of Christian Leaders Institute.

Mission South Africa: Thembelihle believes in the cause for mission South Africa. She start by sharing about the tremendous need for mission South Africa.
“Greetings brethren in the wonderful name of our Lord and saviour Jesus christ Amen. My name Thembelihle Grasia Keele, I’m born in South Africa and also staying in South Africa. God has blessed this country because we do have a political stability. This does not mean that christians are immune from persecution and challenges.”
Thembelihle sees the desperate need for salvation in her country. She continues by sharing some specific challenges mission South Africa faces.
“The reason i’m saying this is because we live in the country were gays and lesbians marriage is legalized and abortion its is also legalized, these pose a serious thread to the christian community. These challenges makes us preachers of the gospel to continue Proclaiming the good news of salvation. There are also social challenges facing the country such as HIV and AIDS and many families are poverty stricken, our country lacks political will from the government in recommending abstinence as only reliable method from being infected rather than preaching CONDOMS as the solution. The issue of sex before marriage its very vital for young people and the principle of one husband one wife.
Mission South Africa needs people like Thembelihle. She shared some very real challenges in her country. She continues by sharing her testimony for mission South Africa.
“It was 1996 when I dedicated my life to Jesus, The scripture was read John 3:16 then i decided to offer my life to him. I did a very noble act I believed in my heart and confesses with my heart that Jesus Christ is the lord as Roman 10:9 says.”
Thembelihle shares her ministry dream for mission South Africa.
“I’m married to Reverend Thabo Jacob Keele, together we have established a church in Boipatong, by the name of HIGH PRAISE COVENANT that is where we serve God. My dream is to make other people disciples salvation was not limited to me and my family alone but to fulfill the great commandments as per Matthew 28:19-20. I also want to support my husband in his vision and calling for we are preaching on the open airs.”
A scholarship is of critical importance for Thembelihle to succeeded with mission South Africa.
“If i can be awarded this scholarship by CHRISTIAN LEADERS INSTITUTE, I will be glad because i know that spiritualy i’m going to gro through their lessons and I will also be able to transfere whatever knowledge I gained to my congrats. In advancing Theological Diloma with CLI then i know that I will gain a recognition amongst other ministers since currently i’m just preaching with no formal Theological qualifications due to non affordability of funs.”
Thembelihle closes by asking for prayer with mission South Africa.
My prayer request is that may the Lord touch people like you, those who have money to continue sponsoring CHRISTIAN LEADERS INSTITUTE through donation that will enable people like me to access this teachings free of charge. My prayer is that we aimed to reach 20000 souls by 2014 for Christ, and we are in need of a Tent we believe and trust that God will make a way. God bless you Amen.

Relationship with God: Laura has a Relationship with God. She starts her story by giving some background for her life and how she got aRelationship with God.
“I live in the Netherlands, in a city called Breda. God has called me to be here to serve Him, and the wonderful people of Holland. Most of the people in Holland will tell you, they simply do not believe in one true God or that they could have Relationship with God. They are to busy in their lives to give Him much attention.”
Laura first got a Relationship with God in USA.
“As a Born again christian from Kansas city Kansas, U.S.A. I would like to share my testimony with you. Having a Relationship with God is very important. God has always had a purpose for each of us. God allowed me to be raised by my maternal grandmother. She was a God fearing Christian. While I was raised in the church, it was not until after I got married and had a family that I figured out how much I needed God in my life.”
A Relationship with God helped her through an abusive husband.
“My husband at the time was extremely abusive. Throughout my marriage to him, there were many a time that I can now look back on and see where only by the grace of God I am still here. I know that my Relationship with God protected me, saved me, healed me, and he continues to watch over me. I gave my heart, soul, and life to the Lord many years ago, when my life seemed to be at its darkest point. I will never turn away from Him, and I will give all I have to help others to get to know and love Him, as I do.”
Her dream is to help others have a Relationship with God.
“The church and foundation where I am a member and teacher is a very Spirit filled church. We are small in physical size, but mighty in our love of the Lord. Our mission is simple, to share Gods love with everyone that will listen, and to help people to develop a Relationship with God. My personal ministry dream is to open a Christian based shelter in Breda where victims of abuse can find shelter, protection, and God’s love and teachings. We need to show in our lives God’s love for others, if we want people to come to the Lord.”
CLI can equip her to help others have a Relationship with God.
“A scholarship at CLI gives people world wide an opportunity to learn God’s Word, and provides the necessary skills and education for people to develop a Relationship with God. In the short time I have been studying at CLI, I have come to see how this Institute can benefit many churches, their members, and non believers to grow to maturity in their walk with the Lord.”
Laura wants abuse victims to have a Relationship with God.
“CLI can help me to fulfill my dream of a Christian based shelter for abuse victims, and go far beyound that to reach the lives of everyone we come in contact with by teaching its students how to develop, sustain, and grow in their individual Relationship with God, as well as, within their families, their church, community, town, and the wrold as a whole.”
Prayer is absolutely needed for Laura as she moves forward with her dream of helping others have a Relationship with God.
“I ask that you will pray for CLI to receive the funds they need to continue to give to their students the high quality of education that they provide freely to their students. May you pray also that God continues to use me in Holland to reach the broken hearted people here for His glory. I know that through my education at CLI, I will grow in my Relationship with God as well as learn the valuable and key things I need to help others to come to and grow in the Lord.”
Laura ends by asking you to support CLI as it helps others have a Relationship with God.
“May the Good Lord show you today how and where you may be a vital donor to CLI. Perhaps it is in the way of finances, and perhaps it is in some other means. My prayer is that God will show you how you can help CLI and other institutes like it to continue to give freely to help others to come to and grow in their knowledge and Relationship with God.
May God bless you and keep you; Laura Aarts”
