(KAYP town) – “I was smoking, sniffing glue, lying, and fighting. After I got baptized, I started discipleship training, and my life totally changed. I stopped smoking, sniffing, lying, and fighting. I am a new person because I believe that God changed my life completely. I know that God created me in His own image, and I want to be a follower of Jesus.” Fifteen-year-old Daluxolo’s mother had reached out to missionaries Charles and Dohee Kim about her concerns for his unhealthy habits. Daluxolo, whose family is Xhosa (pronounced KOH-sah), followed Jesus in baptism in November 2025. The Kims have seen his life change radically. Please pray for the Kims as they invest their lives in others like Daluxolo through reading groups, a choir, and discipleship programs developed specifically for township schools in the Strand suburb. Pray for continued favor among young people and school leaders. Pray for others who will make disciples and for the Kims’ ministry to reach into the homes and families of these students. “And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh” (Ezekiel 36:26 ESV).
