Juniper Table, Ezulwini Galitos, Mbabane (2026)

We are Patrick and Leah Conti, two normal people who are embracing the adventure of serving God, wherever He leads. We are ending a season of living in Africa- having served the last 3 years in South Africa and Tanzania. After a combined 12 years of full-time ministry in 4 different countries, we have seen a theme develop in the global Church. Too often we see passionate people with a heart to ser

ve God become tired and worn down, often by being ill-supported or working too long without a respite. Our passion is to see missionaries and local pastors equipped and encouraged to do the work God has called them to from a place of health. We believe healthy ministers will serve the communities God has called them to more effectively. Our name, Juniper Table, is inspired by Elijah's restorative encounter with the Lord under a Juniper tree in 1 Kings 19. In the story, the angel of the Lord fed a discouraged Elijah to give him strength for the journey to Mount Sinai where he had an encounter with God. We want to set the table for ministers of the gospel to have a "juniper moment" as well. As the chapters of our story unfold you can help us strengthen these incredible leaders who are hungry to transform their communities through effective ministry. We can't and don't want to do this alone, and would love to have you on board!

If you’ve ever considered giving toward our work of encouraging and supporting ministry leaders in Southern Africa- now would be a fantastic time to help us reach our goal and move toward the next season with a strong base!

Our full report for the first half of the year is out! If you’re not already on our email list and want to check it out- message us your email and we will send it over.

It’s been a full and focused start to the year. We have gotten to be a part of some pretty special moments. Training leaders, creating space for rest, building leaders in Ethiopia, women’s events in Southern Africa, hosting our first team- check it out…

Patrick Conti & Kraiziey traveled back to Ethiopia to train leaders with Omo Child- a local organization working to end child harm and protect and raise children in the Omo Valley.

So many holy moments with our women’s team and hosting the Women’s Connect Day and then 3-day Missionary Women Retreat.

This and more all in our half year report. Message us and we will share the full thing!

We had the best time at our Women’s Connect Day recently.
What was it? Think: 1-day retreat for 60 incredible female ministry leaders from 28 organizations across ESwatini! The team worked to create a space for these ladies to turn from their usual position of giving to instead being able to receive.
Every detail was put together to encourage them in the long obedience in the same direction that is the Christian life and in the good work He has invited them to.

What a beautiful day to get to cheer on these women doing such vital and holy work across our beautiful nation. What an honor to hold their arms up as they serve!

A huge thank you to for your stellar hospitality and the team from and for serving and making the day incredible!

23 women gathered last week for our first Women’s Connect Brunch of 2026.
We shared a meal, worshipped, and talked about something countercultural but crucial — slowing down to keep up with Jesus.

Then we actually did it. We practiced solitude - together. Women spread out in chairs and on picnic blankets across our property, quiet and still, listening and focusing our hearts towards God.
When we walked around calling the ladies back together, one woman said “This was the best part of my day.”
In the middle of full lives and full ministries, may we remember — we don’t have to do anything to let a shaken jar of water settle. We just have to leave it alone long enough. Our souls work the same way.

Slow down to keep up with Jesus.

In spiritual direction a few months ago, I was given this poem. So as we start 2026, I share it here with you. May it encourage, comfort, and challenge you as it has me.

The Slow Work of God

Above all, trust in the slow work of God We are quite naturally impatient in everything to reach the end without delay We should like to skip the intermediate stages. We are impatient of being on the way to something unknown, something new. And yet it is the law of all progress that it is made by passing through some stages of instability- and that it may take a very long time. And so I think it is with you. your ideas mature gradually – let them grow, let them shape themselves, without undue haste. Don’t try to force them on, as though you could be today what time (that is to say, grace and circumstances acting on your own good will) will make of you tomorrow. Only God could say what this new spirit gradually forming within you will be. Give Our Lord the benefit of believing that his hand is leading you, and accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense and incomplete. - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
