Serving on a Soul Action team in Durban has been the most amazing experience. By seeing poverty with my own eyes, I really began to understand more of God’s heart for justice.
"Demonstrating God’s heart for the poor through our actions is what we’re called to do... by stepping out of my comfort zone and serving God in my weakness, I've learnt to rely fully on Him, and as we do that we allow Him room to move, to show more of Himself to us and share His heart with us."

Joybells is an orphanage and school which is currently home to 53 children aged from 3 - 11. In many cases the children may not be orphans as we understand that word but come from backgrounds of extreme poverty where any relations they may have are not able to care for them. Volunteers on this placement will be put to use as teachers, but there are lots of opportunities to get involved, so get in touch to see what is possible.

*Please note that all costs are subject to change; this is due to the variable nature of overseas travel expenses.
