Before we left for the US in February we made an updated version of our ministry video. The first one we did was hosted by our son Luke when he was 11 years old I believe. Things have changed a bit since then. If you’ve never seen the first video you can check it out […]

Prayer Requests & Praise We have a new teen girl, Asanda (pictured below), who has come into the Rhino Youth Home. She has been a faithful teen at one of our churches for many years but was kicked out of her abusive home a couple of weeks ago. She’s had to grow up in a […]
Coffey Family April 2023 Prayer Letter
This month comes with sadness and joy. Lisolethu, a 17-year-old boy who lived at our Youth Home for over 2 years, quickly passed away from Spinal Meningitis. His funeral was held this past Saturday. We praise the Lord that Liso made a profession of faith and I believe we’ll see him again soon. Even after […]

Our junior summer camps at Camp Rhino have come to an end […]

Coffey Family March 2022 Prayer Letter
Would you consider committing $1000 to be one of the 100 churches to give towards the Africa Youth Home? We are needing $100,00 by the end of April for this purchase. It is the property right next to Camp Rhino, which makes it a very strategic location. The asking price is around $113,000, and […]
Africa Youth Home & Short Trip back to the States

I’m looking forward to being with all our Vision Baptist Mission’s missionaries on deputation and on furlough. Pray the Lord blesses this time. I’m also using this time to present the ministry of the new Africa Youth […]
