Welcome to Goshen International!
When I first arrived in South Africa I was not sure what I would be doing beyond feeding the children in the township, teaching Bible stories, and trying to improve their general quality of life. However, after my first three months, I began to realize more fully the situation that the children in South Africa were in. Let me explain. During one of my “talks” with the teenagers, I was shocked when the children told me that they had no aspirations. One child told me that his grandmother had died in Kurland, his mother had died in Kurland, and he would die there too.
Now, if you ask any one of them what they want to be when they grow up, they will say doctors, teachers, pastors, “municipality men”, and the list goes on. One child at a time, we are beginning to beat the odds.
