❤️ 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡 𝗔 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗟 ❤️

Every Wednesday morning, before the working day begins, something special happens beneath the trees outside our office.

People begin arriving. Food is placed on the table. But before we serve a meal, we spend time together.

We worship.

We share the Word of God.

We pray.

We listen.

We encourage one another.

And then we eat together.

Over time, these Wednesday mornings have reminded us that 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱.

A warm meal can meet a need for today, but a conversation can remind someone that they matter. A prayer can restore hope. A relationship can remind someone that they are seen, valued and loved.

Sometimes ministry is not complicated.

Sometimes it is simply being willing to show up, sit with someone, listen to their story and remind them that Jesus loves them.

At Heart of the Father Foundation, we believe 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀.

And we know that strong families do not exist in isolation. They need strong, caring communities around them — communities where people are encouraged, supported and reminded that they are not alone.

Thank you to every person who is part of 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿’𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁 — every person who prays, gives, prepares meals and serves alongside us.

BECAUSE OF YOU, WE KEEP SHOWING UP. ❤️

August has once again reminded us that we never do this work alone.

Every tin of food, every item of clothing, every baby essential, every financial gift and every product donated becomes something practical that we can place into the hands of a child, a family or an organisation caring for vulnerable children.

This month, we want to say a very special THANK YOU to:

❤️ Newton Park Pre-Primary School
❤️ Glendon Roberts & Mieke Roberts
❤️ Dale & Charne Roux
❤️ Cherize De Lange
❤️ Dairy Group
❤️ Karen Palmer

Your generosity helps us respond when needs arise, support families and children in our community, and continue building relationships with people who need to know that they have not been forgotten.

Some gifts may look small on their own - a tin of food, a bag of clothing, baby essentials, milk or a financial contribution -but when people come together, they become part of something much bigger.

They help us keep showing up.

Thank you for trusting Heart of the Father Foundation to carry your kindness further. We are deeply grateful to have you walking this journey with us.

Because children belong in families. ❤️

❤️ 𝗕𝗘𝗖𝗔𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗬𝗢𝗨 - 𝗗𝗢𝗢𝗥 𝗢𝗙 𝗛𝗢𝗣𝗘 ❤️

Last Thursday, our bakkie was packed - and so were our hearts.

What you see in these photos represents the generosity of so many people who responded when we shared the needs at Door of Hope.

𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘆. 𝗧𝗼𝘆𝘀. 𝗧𝗲𝗱𝗱𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀. 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲. ❤️

Each bag represents someone who decided to give, someone who cared and someone who wanted to make a difference in the lives of children and those caring for them.

There are honestly too many people to name individually, and we would never want to accidentally leave anyone out.

So to 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗱𝘂𝗮𝗹, 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆, 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗰𝗵𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿 who contributed:

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

Because of you, these items are no longer sitting in bags waiting to be used. They have been delivered to where they are needed and will help provide practical support, dignity and moments of joy.

This is what happens when a community comes together.

At Heart of the Father Foundation, we believe that 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀, and part of that calling is standing alongside the organisations, caregivers and communities who are caring for vulnerable children right now.

This delivery is another reminder that we could never do this alone.

𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽. ❤️

Thank you for trusting us, supporting the work and helping us continue building relationships with organisations like Door of Hope.

And the journey does not stop with one delivery. We will continue walking alongside them, responding to needs where we can and trusting God to provide through people just like you.

❤️ 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗬 𝟳𝟬𝗧𝗛 𝗕𝗜𝗥𝗧𝗛𝗗𝗔𝗬, 𝗨𝗡𝗖𝗟𝗘 𝗝𝗢𝗛𝗡 ❤️

Yesterday, a very special man who has become such an important part of Heart of the Father Foundation celebrated his 70th birthday.

Many people in our community will know Uncle John as 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀.

Day after day, you will find him standing on street corners and at traffic lights, carrying his cross, praising and worshipping Jesus and reminding people of the hope we have in Him.

But to those of us who have had the privilege of getting to know him, he is so much more than that.

𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗚𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝘀.

You don't only speak about your faith — you live it.

You continue to show up, worship, pray for people, encourage others and boldly carry the name of Jesus wherever you go.

To many of us, you have also become a spiritual father — someone whose life reminds us what it looks like to remain faithful, humble and obedient to God.

Seventy years of life is something worth celebrating, but even more beautiful is a life that continues to say, 𝗬𝗲𝘀, 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗱.

Thank you for walking alongside Heart of the Father Foundation. Thank you for your prayers, your encouragement, your example and for never being ashamed to stand for Jesus.

Our prayer is that God will bless you with many more years of strength, health and opportunities to share His love with the people around you.

𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝟳𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻. 𝗪𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝘄𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗚𝗼𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂. ❤️🙏

❤️ 𝗛𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗙𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗛𝗙𝗨𝗟 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗜𝗖𝗘 ❤️

Today we want to take a moment to honour someone who faithfully serves alongside Heart of the Father Foundation week after week.

Every Wednesday morning, Juan shares the Word of God with members of our community, prays with people, encourages them and reminds them that 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿.

There are many parts of ministry that people do not always see — the preparation, the prayers beforehand, the conversations afterwards and the decision to simply keep showing up consistently.

𝗝𝘂𝗮𝗻, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲. Thank you for never being ashamed of the Gospel and for always being willing to pray, preach and serve wherever God gives you the opportunity.

The words on your jacket say it so beautifully:

𝗔 𝗪𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 — 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝟯:𝟭𝟲.

The Gospel is for everyone. Every person matters to God, and every person deserves the opportunity to hear that they are seen, loved and not forgotten.

We are grateful that God has placed you alongside us on this journey and for the role you continue to play in the work of Heart of the Father Foundation.

Juan also carries his heart for Jesus through 𝗟𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝗙𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. We would love to encourage everyone to follow their page and support the work God is doing through this ministry.

May the Lord continue to strengthen you, guide you and use your life to reach many more people for His Kingdom.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽, 𝗝𝘂𝗮𝗻. 𝗪𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂. ❤️

Within only 25 minutes, the need was met. ❤️

Yesterday, we shared a request for five pairs of school shoes for boys in one of the children’s homes we support.

Within 25 minutes, every pair had been covered.

Because of the kindness of people who responded, five boys now have proper shoes to wear to school.

A special thank you to The Open Door Church, CRB Ministries, and everyone else who offered to help. Thank you also to Kelston Motor Group and those who reached out after the need had already been met.

This is what The Father’s Heart is about — people coming together, seeing a need and choosing to respond.

Because of you, five children can walk into school knowing that someone cares.

**Something beautiful happened at our Wednesday outreach this week. ❤️**

After the Word was shared, and before we handed out the food, we did something a little differently.

We asked everyone to find one other person, stand together and pray for each other.

For a few moments, the field became a place of prayer.

People carrying their own needs and struggles chose to stand alongside someone else, listen to them and bring their needs before God.

It reminded us that outreach is about more than handing someone a meal.

It is about relationship.
It is about dignity.
It is about reminding people that they are seen, loved and not standing alone.

Afterward, we shared the food together, but we left reminded that sometimes one of the greatest gifts we can give someone is simply to stand with them in prayer.

Thank you to every volunteer, donor and supporter who helps us keep coming back and creating moments like these.

**Thank You, Jesus, for meeting us beneath the trees once again. ❤️**
