Join us as we partner with what God is already doing in Oudtshoorn, George, and Groot Brakrivier - sharing the Gospel, facilitating encounters with Jesus, serving local communities, and being available wherever He leads us.

Our prayer is not only that lives would be impacted through the mission, but that every person on the team would encounter Jesus in a fresh way, discover more of His heart, and grow in their calling.

There is something powerful that happens when we step out in faith and simply say, “Yes, Lord.”

If you feel stirred to be part of this journey, join the Mission Group through the link in our bio before 20 July.

"Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?’ Then I said, ‘Here am I! Send me.’"
- Isaiah 6:8

YTH DAY | Today We Celebrate Our Youth 🎉

We are grateful for every child, teenager, young adult, parent, volunteer, leader, coach, mentor, and family member who invests in the next generation. Thank you for creating spaces where young people can encounter Jesus, build meaningful friendships, discover their purpose, and grow in faith.

Our prayer is that this generation would know God deeply, walk confidently in their identity in Christ, and boldly carry His Kingdom wherever they go.

"Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity." - 1 Timothy 4:12 (ESV)

Happy Youth Day! 🇿🇦💛

YTH DAY Countdown | Kids Church is not a babysitting facility

We believe parents are the primary disciplers of their children, which is why every parent is part of our Kids Church team. Whether you're leading a discussion, helping with activities, worshipping alongside the kids, or simply building relationships, everyone has a role to play.

Our desire is to create a community where children are known, loved, and discipled not only by their own parents but by the wider church family. Every Sunday looks a little different because every person brings their unique gifts, and that's what makes it so special.

We also don't believe there's a junior Holy Spirit. The same God who speaks, moves, heals, and transforms in our adult gatherings is at work in the lives of our children. That's why we create space for them to worship, pray, hear God's voice, and encounter Him for themselves.

Kids Church isn't childcare, it's church. It's a place where children grow in their faith, discover who God is, and learn to follow Jesus in a fun and age-appropriate way.

YTH DAY Countdown | Kids Band 🎸🥁🎤

What started in June 2024 in a small lounge with a handful of children learning instruments, making up dances, and singing together has grown into something truly special.

Kids Band began out of a simple desire for children to play and worship together rather than learning on their own. We invited one of our worship leaders, who teaches some of the children, to join the first session. Afterwards, we asked if he'd like to continue, and his response has stayed with us ever since:

"Jesus said the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these while talking about children, and so where children are, so is Jesus. Yes, I'm definitely staying!"

Today, Kids Band meets in a bigger venue and welcomes all children, regardless of musical ability. It's become a place where kids can connect, grow in confidence, have fun, and learn to praise God together.

Along the way, they've had opportunities to serve on mission trips, blessing both young and old through music and worship. Our volunteer team has grown too, making Kids Band a beautiful space to sow into the next generation.

And of course, no Kids Band evening is complete without a treat together, especially when there's chocolate pudding involved!

YTH DAY Countdown | Kids Church Testimony

In January 2023, we hit a breaking point. Our leaders were exhausted, and we made a radical decision: we laid it all down. No Kids Church.

What followed was 9 months of messy family services, loud distractions, and intense wrestling. But in the middle of the noise, God spoke a foundational truth: Parents are the primary disciple-makers of their children.

September 2023, Kids Church was reborn. Not as a babysitting club, but as a parent-led, Spirit-filled ministry where:
🏡 Discipleship starts at home.
🙌 Children boldly lead worship and pray.
🌍 Kids are actively sharing the Gospel.

What looked like death was resurrected by God into something healthy, vibrant, and built to last. This is what happens when we step back and let God build it His way!

A testimony from the recent Mozambique mission. 🇲🇿

One of the biggest things the Young Adults team experienced in Chadamane, Mozambique was the power of prayer.

Again and again, God revealed things in prayer long before they saw them with their own eyes. He highlighted people, situations, and needs before they encountered them, reminding them that He was already at work.

It was a beautiful reminder that prayer isn't just about asking God to move, it's about partnering with Him in what He's already doing.

They went to serve, but they came back with a deeper confidence that God still speaks, still leads, and still reveals His heart to His people.

"Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known." Jeremiah 33:3

May this encourage us all to keep seeking Him. The God who knows the end from the beginning is still speaking, still revealing, and still inviting His people into His purposes through prayer.

We are Shofar - more than a local church.

We are part of a global movement of over 50 congregations united across borders and generations. Our very name carries a prophetic assignment: to break the silence, proclaim the goodness of King Jesus, and awaken people to their God‑given purpose.

When we gather at Shofar Cape Town South, we do so standing on the shoulders of a pioneer story that began in 1992. From a small student fellowship, God has raised up an international movement that continues to reach nations and generations. Out of that same pioneering spirit, our local house was planted in 2010. Since then, we’ve seen the Lord transform us from a handful of young adults into a thriving, multi‑cultural family.

Church, to us, is not just a building you visit on Sundays, it is a family living on mission together. Here in Cape Town South, people from all walks of life — from families in the southern suburbs to students at UCT — gather to worship, grow, and serve.

Together with the wider Shofar body, we are single‑minded in our vision: to reach nations and generations through disciple‑making, leadership development, and church planting. 🌎🔥

Awaken Ladies Worship Evening 🌸

There’s something so special about women gathering with open hearts, lifting their voices, and simply resting in the presence of the Lord. This evening wasn’t about performance or perfection - it was about worship, fellowship, and freedom.

Together we sang, prayed, and encountered His Spirit in a way that left us refreshed and encouraged.
