PUB RESTORED INTO A CHURCH - Salem Danville, Pretoria, South Africa

FROM PUB TO CHURCH

Salem Danville's first service was under a carport on the 1st of March 2009 with 6 people. We started because the people of Danville spoke a need of a Biblical, relevant and alive church.

In December of 2009 we took over an old pub in Danville and renovated it into our church - a miracle done by God! Today we minister to about 100 people, 30 teenagers and 60 children.
Danville is a poor area in Pretoria West, South Africa - unique in a sense that there is poor people of all cultures and races.

Our vision - to bring His Peace and restoration to the people of Danville. To show them that your circumstances do not dictate God's love for you. Jesus loves all, no matter who you are, what you've done, or how much money you have!

Share the joy of ministering to the poor with us in this blog!

Starting 2012 with a miracle!

I am back blogging again! Hope you're holiday was full of rest and His peace!

This past month for us was a busy but very exciting time. God has surprised us with one miracle after the other… The biggest our new premises!

Our new church miracle!
These past few weeks we had to create an overflow outside just to accommodate all the people coming to our church. We been really praying and trusting God for a new building.

For the past few months we have been investigating all options for a new premise. In Danville however, it is very difficult rent a hall, especially when people hear it is for a church. We just kept on confessing and trusting in God who gave us quite a few promises.

In December we got a mail about a church that is for sale in Danville – a miracle on its own – even a greater miracle to be able to buy a church!

After long conversations with the owner, he agreed to rent the church to us with the option to buy within a few months! HALLELUJA!

We will be dedicating our new church on the 5th of February 2012 at 9h00 the morning. It will be a celebration service to thank our Father for His provision and goodness. Please come in join us in this celebration if you are near!

Please trust with us that we would be able to buy this church within the next few months!

May this encourage you!
We pray that this blog and testimonies would encourage you! That you would see that God still provides and God still answers prayer!

It might sound like a cliché – but if He can do it for us, He will most certainly do it for you! Just keep on trusting and praying. Your time for a miracle is on its way!

Prayer!
Keep us in your prayers, as we keep you in our prayers! Together we are laboring, not only for this life, but for eternity!

May His Peace be the guardian of your heart!


Shalom!
