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. This brief video explains why the ministry exists and how you can get involved. Also please visit their web site at onthatile.org.
