Jos and his wife Sylvia founded Christ’s Hope in 2003 after witnessing the plight of AIDS-affected, orphaned children in Africa during their tenure with Youth for Christ in a small town in Namibia; a project that quickly expanded to seven countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. As a critical element to the program, Sylvia wrote the Genesis Design curriculum, a lesson plan intending to teach youth about God’s design for manhood and womanhood, marriage, sexuality, and AIDS education.
Jos will continue to serve with Christ’s Hope in discipleship training and speak on behalf of the organization. Sylvia will continue to develop the Genesis Design curriculum.
We praise God for their dedication to the calling He has given them and eagerly anticipate what He has in store for the future.
The title and duties of International Director have been appointed to David Kase, previously US Director, effective on January 1st, 2019. On the same date the position of African Team Leader was established and appointed to Glenn Vantieghem, team leader for the DR Congo, who will be responsible for overseeing ministry in Africa.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”7274″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1616611950869{margin-top: 5px !important;margin-right: 5px !important;margin-bottom: 5px !important;margin-left: 5px !important;padding-top: 5px !important;padding-right: 5px !important;padding-bottom: 5px !important;padding-left: 5px !important;}”][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1613684551997{margin: 0px !important;padding: 0px !important;border: 0px initial !important;}”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1613684568332{margin: 0px !important;padding: 0px !important;border: 0px initial !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1616609374475{margin-top: 5px !important;margin-right: 5px !important;margin-bottom: 5px !important;margin-left: 5px !important;padding-top: 5px !important;padding-right: 5px !important;padding-bottom: 5px !important;padding-left: 5px !important;}”]

It’s been a long journey, but we couldn’t be happier with the result! We are so grateful to everyone who supported us prayerfully and financially through this experience, as well as the ladies at SwingShift who put together this amazing fundraiser. We are especially thankful for Saburi Boyer of Loft TC for partnering with us this fall as our sponsor champion and star performer, and for working so hard to help us raise $57,811! A big shout out to Marc Judge, Larry Flynn, Brad Harrison, and Gerhard Potgieter as well for joining Saburi in the November lip sync battle; we couldn’t have asked for a better representatives!
