(KAYP town) – Cape Town, South Africa, is quickly moving into summer since it’s in the Southern Hemisphere. Missionaries are gearing up their ministry plans because the summertime school break occurs from the second week of December through the third week of January. Jason and Nicole Zaruba and their children will be starting an outreach ministry using sports in January 2026 alongside their church, Lakeview Community Church. Their goal is to reach unchurched children and their families with the gospel. The ministry will focus on people who live in the Steenberg, Retreat, and Lavender Hill communities. Gang warfare has caused death and fear there for months, and hundreds of people have died. Please pray for volunteers from the local church who will receive training. Ask the Father to help the ministry volunteers share the gospel clearly and each hearer to believe in Jesus. These people do not know if they will die today or tomorrow by a bullet or a knife. Seek God’s protection and peace for the harvest laborers and those whom they serve. “Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes” (James 4:14 ESV).
