BUILDING THE KINGDOM
GROWING IN FAITH

Shongwe is the affectionate name that we have given to the ministry we do in partnership with Sally Mckibbin.
Sally is the founder of the Thembalethu NGO as well as “mother” to 19 children/teenagers who have found love and refuge on her plot in a rural village in South Africa.
BBC makes its way to her home multiple times a year to help out in many different ways.

What can I expect from a trip?
Shongwe trips are a real blessing. We like to think of them as a weekend away for the good.
You can expect to grow in your personal relationship in faith with Christ as you love people in the most practical way, forge lasting friendships with fellow attendees and enjoy great food.
On top of this you can expect to go to bed tired every night after a hard but rewarding day of work on behalf of someone else.
Connect with Christ in a new way
Make new friends and memories
FAQ’s• Q. Is Shongwe a Malaria area?• A. Yes, but there have been few to no reported cases.• Q. Do I need to be a trained in building to be useful on the
building site?• A. No. It is very easy to learn and there are supervisors who will
help you?• Q. What are the roads like in Shongwe?• A. Terrible. We will use bakkies for the day to day travel in
Shongwe. If you have been called upon as a driver your car will remain at the compound during the day.
• Q. Can I bring my kids?• A. Yes, they will be your responsibility throughout. Staying together
as a family may require you to camp.
