A Testimony of Transformation 🌿
Four years ago, Jennifer traveled to eSwatini with Project Love One. This summer, she returned—and we asked her to share what it was like to come back and see what God has done in those four years.
In Jennifer’s words:
“Four years ago, we had the privilege of serving with Project Love One in Eswatini. We came home deeply moved by the needs we had seen. But when we returned this time, something struck me in a completely different way.
I realized that we weren’t just witnessing people being helped, we were witnessing lives being changed and a community learning to sustain itself.
We saw a community garden so fruitful that it is now generating income that is being poured right back into the garden. We saw clean water kits providing something as simple and as life-changing as a clean cup of water in homes. We saw two feeding programs have now become five as local churches are able to feed all who attend each Sunday. We saw children receiving new school uniforms and shoes because their families couldn’t afford them. We saw the tremendous growth in scholarships allowing students to finish high school and pursue higher education, including students now being sponsored through university.
There is healthcare. There is food. There is water. There is education.
But there is something even greater.
There is love.
Project Love One doesn’t simply meet a physical need and walk away. They come alongside people, serve them personally, build relationships, create opportunities, and remind them that they are seen, valued, and loved.
And every one of those acts points back to Jesus.
Jesus said in Matthew 25:40, ‘Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
That verse became very real to me in Eswatini.
Because when you hand someone a cup of clean water, you are doing more than giving water.
When you plant a garden, you are doing more than growing food.
When you put a new pair of shoes on a child’s feet, you are doing more than providing shoes.
When you help a student receive an education, you are doing more than paying a scholarship.
You are saying, ‘You matter. You are loved. And God has not forgotten you.’
And perhaps the greatest eye-opening moment of all was realizing that four years later, the seeds that have been planted are now producing fruit, literally and spiritually.
That is Project Love One.
Hands-on. Person-to-person. Heart-to-heart.
Serving the least of these in the name of Jesus—and watching God multiply it.”
