All Nations CPx Prepares Servant Leaders for Africa

His face was angry, full of despair, his voice broken as Khwazi explained his problem. He had lost everything in the fire that destroyed 78 homes as it tore through the informal settlement called Red Hill. His shack, higher up the mountainside, was engulfed in the flames, as were his refrigerator, stove and all the possessions he had. A gardener in nearby Glencairn, he had been given two days to rebuild his shack and he did not know how to do it properly. "I've tried but I can't," he said "I have no saw, I have nothing and I don't know how to build". Further there was a sense of urgency as his eight year old daughter who lived with him, was staying with his brother while he slept on the ground. Kwazi poured out his troubles to the CPx students who came to assist him rebuild his life and his home. "Don't worry, we will help you," they assured him.

CPx students, Willy Ngombi of Zambia, and Muwyaradzi Hove of Zimbabwe, hiked up the rocky mountainside to work beside Khwazi. They assessed his progress and gave some helpful advice. Khwazi has used the wrong beams and his measurements are way off. He really does not know what he is doing. But now he has friends who will work alongside him to put his house back up. "These are the first people to help me," says Khwazi.

An engineer by profession, CPx'er Muwyaradzi is now focused on economics and marketing. He came to the All Nations CPx six month training school in Cape Town, because he has a hunger to see people come to know Jesus Christ. This Red Hill experience is where he now gets to show the love of Jesus Christ "hands on," something that all of the students must do.

Willy, the other student helping Khwazi, has studied accounting and psychology. He says his heart really is with children, "but I want to touch each and every soul God places in my path," he says. He loves the CPx training and is happy to be in Red Hill. "This is very good experience," he says. "We help people not to feel neglected but see the love of God through us. This is awesome, servanthood leadership."
