Sowing Seeds of Joy South Africa Management & Core Team
November 2014, Naomi and I (Winston Myers) had the privilege to facilitate a mission outreach in Cape Town as members of and the mission pastor of North Pine Baptist Church. We partnered with Sowing Seeds of Joy USA in this endeavor. On that occasion, we were honored to meet Ron and Star Nelson and James Wanje. This was the start of a new thing God was doing in our lives as a family.
Amazingly God prepared us, having served several years with other mission outreach organizations such as Mercy Ship. This new direction for our lives was revealed just a few weeks later. We had to urgently seek God’s strength through prayer and fasting to make some major decisions in our ministry journey. God directed us and we once again said yes Lord.
We accepted the call to join God at work in this world through heading up the mission organization Sowing Seeds of Joy - South Africa It seemed to have been a bigger step of faith than we have ever taken, once again…but God!
