Get To Know Onthatile Children’s Ministries

Onthatile

My recent journey through Africa led me to Onthatile Children’s Ministries in Johannesburg, South Africa (the second time I’ve visited the ministry, which is pronounced OWN-ta-tee-lay). There are nearly 3 million orphans in South Africa and Onthatile exists to rescue those that have been abandoned, then to provide them a safe haven until they can be adopted into families.

  • Known for Love

    Are You Known for Love?

    We live at an interesting time, a time in which so much is changing.
