Joe and Abbey bring unique skillsets to  ministries in Durban, helping them effectively minister the Gospel to their communities.

Joe began his journey in youth ministry, where he honed his talent for using hand-me-down equipment in creative ways, enabling effective ministry on a shoestring budget. His passion for innovation led him to a church position where he excelled in worship, website platforms, video production, and social media. Joe’s knack for developing strategies that foster growth in tech, marketing, and faith has made a significant impact.

Abbey’s heart for women’s health and birth ministries was cultivated in the villages of Kenya, where her family served as full-time missionaries. As a certified doula, Abbey has primarily served low-income families, providing much-needed support and care. With 13 certifications in various areas of women’s health, she is exceptionally equipped to help churches support pregnancy, postpartum care, and young family development.

Penny and Cloe simply love Jesus with pure hearts. They are eager to share His love with other children, helping those who don’t know Him to come to know and love Him as they do. They might be the most effective missionaries of all.

Supporting Local Churches

Right now, most of the churches a Durbanite can find on Google are, like many ministries in Africa, rooted in prosperity gospel and utilizing predatory practices on destitute peoples; they sell hope with no efforts to actually help their flocks. Joe assists solid Bible-based churches in Durban with their social media and website needs to reach all people effectively, both short- and long-term. When people hear Jesus, we want them to think of ministries we partner with, not ministries that took their parent’s house from them.

Healthy Pregnancy Training

Abbey works with churches and ministries to deliver training on addressing healthy pregnancies, handling sexual assault, working through abandonment, and more. With resources for a wide variety of birth situations, Abbey equips ministries to care for the whole woman, including her child  and her family as they go through this journey. She works with Beautiful Feet International to continue developing resources that are used worldwide. Learn more about Beautiful Feet here.
