Coffey Family July 2025 Prayer Letter
We started off July with our Winter Teen and Junior Mini-Camps at Camp Rhino. Many young people made professions of faith, and we all enjoyed a wonderful time during our short winter break. Please pray these young people will impact their communities with the Gospel as they return home and get involved in their local…

Coffey Family Prayer Letter May 2025
We are back home in South Africa! It has been a blessing to return to Camp Rhino and our church family, though leaving our grandson behind was difficult. The past few weeks have been incredibly eventful. Please continue praying for the Sullivan family as they spend time in the States. We are still rejoicing over…

Coffey Family February 2025 Prayer Letter
Sometimes the Lord opens doors you never expect. In 2016, when we first envisioned Camp Rhino, we never imagined the opportunities we’d have to share the Gospel. For the past three years, a high school about 15 minutes away has been renting our facilities. What started as a two-week rental grew to one month, and…

I currently have Wednesday evening services and weekday openings for mission conferences before we head back on May…

Coffey Family December 2024 Prayer Letter
Our final weeks in South Africa before heading to the States for a few months have been incredibly productive. I’ve been enjoying Bible studies with five faithful men from our church, and we’re celebrating that 10 teenagers trusted Christ during our recent teen camp! Church attendance has been steady at around 80 people, but what’s…

Please pray for our family and friends here in South Africa. We suffered a great loss on Sept 21st. The first girl who moved into our youth home and lived here for 4 years was tragically killed at 19 years old. She was like a daughter to us. She was saved at our first teen…

Coffey Family September 2024 Prayer Letter
This Sunday, we are excited to have four older adults getting baptized at Lighthouse Baptist Church, with another baptism planned for the following week. Two Sundays ago, Lynette Osborn, a dedicated single missionary working with us, presented certificates to eight young ladies who had completed an extensive discipleship course. It’s truly encouraging to witness the…

Coffey Family July 2024 Prayer Letter
A few weeks ago, a family of six visited our church: a father and mother with their four children. This was the first time in our history of working in the townships that we had a complete family visit our church. It’s rare to find a married couple with children in our area; we only…

Coffey Family July 2024 Prayer Letter
I want to thank you all for praying and reaching out after Camp Rhino flooded last month. We’re so thankful for the encouraging words and gifts that we received. What a tremendous blessing you all are. Camp Rhino was flooded less than two weeks before the start of our winter camps, but with the…

Coffey Family May 2024 Prayer Letter
Our time in the States was fruitful, but we are very glad to be back in South Africa. This past weekend Camp Rhino hosted its first ladies’ retreat with all the churches and it went great. The guys here at camp took over the cooking duties for once to make sure our ladies were well-fed. …
