THE MINISTRY BUILDS A HOUSE FOR 2 ORPHANS AT LUPHISI, NEAR NELSPRUIT

In February 2014, Bishop MVG Lephoko came up with an idea to honor SA's queen of Gospel Rebecca Malope for excellence. This idea also gave birth to the CSI project that MVG Lephoko Ministries  and Dr Rebecca Malope undertook to build a house for 2 orphaned teenagers residing at Luphisi near Nelspruit. 

The girls lost both their parents and later their grandmother who was their guardian after the loss of their parents.

The girls had to depend on their neighbours who were taking care of them. One of them who was living with another neighbour, who was also her teacher found herself orphaned again.   

The house was built in 3 weeks and officially opened on 5 April 2014. We congratulate the girls, Thandeka and Lindokuhle for now they have a place they call home. The house boasts 2 bedrooms, a lounge, kitchen and a bathroom and is fully electrified.

Here are the snippets of the house unveiling on 5 April 2014
