A routine hospital visit by the youth of the Ngwelezane Seventh Day Adventist Church resulted in Maureen Mnguni (56) being a beneficiary of a brand new two-room house built especially for her.
The new homeowner, bursting with pride, could not contain her excitement as she accepted the keys to her home last Monday.
Mnguni was a patient at Ngwelezane Hospital when she met youth ministry members spreading the word of God in her ward
After her discharge, the Adventist Church women paid Mnguni a visit at her home in rural Sgisi where she had been living in a dilapidated shack with her two children.
Overwhelmed by the shoddy conditions in which she lived, the women decided to bless her with a home and a new uniform for her thirteen-year-old son who at the time had been wearing torn clothes and damaged shoes.
‘We thank the Lord God for giving these women a sharp eye to see and wisdom not only to pray for the unfortunate, but to act as needed,’ said Ngwelezane Adventist Church Women’s Ministry leader, Thandile Mahaye.
I wish may God bless the church,They did a good thing.I hope all churchies must do something for poor people.
Job well done brotherens. We thank God for your contribution in changing this woman’s condition.What you have done is Christianity in practice. You have demostrated God’s love to this family.
