Resthaven Ministries

🎉 we just HAVE to share this incredible story with you all!

Remember when we told you about Sandy’s son who found her after being given up for adoption over 50 years ago? Well, he came all the way from America to finally meet his mom! 🇺🇸❤️

The reunion was incredibly emotional for both of them. To celebrate this special occasion, Sandy’s church organized a warm welcoming braai, and let me tell you, the resemblance between them is simply amazing!

Psalm 90:17
May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands.

❤️ We care for orphans and seniors, providing them with the support and love they need. Your donations can make a real difference in their lives. Please consider supporting our mission. ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to one of our very special generous donors who arranged for the girls at Resthaven to enjoy a wonderful day of pampering with hair styling, massages, manicures, and facials. They returned looking lovely and hearts full! THANK YOU so so much this means so much to us! 💖

Come visit our children's and senior residences! They love sharing conversations over tea, playing games, being pampered, and engaging in fun activities. We’d love to hear your ideas for making their days even brighter! 💖

✨ Exciting news! Camelia House has received some much-needed repairs and a fresh coat of paint inside and out, bringing new life and brightness to our space! 🌈 While we can't name everyone who made this possible, you know who you are, and we are truly grateful for your incredible support! 💖 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

We got an article in this week's Comaro Chronicle about our visit to Daivd House organised by Visions Of Joy.

JOY Dogs put on a display at David House | Southern Courier JOY Dogs visit local children's home.

Sharing a post from from Universal Woman 2024:

visited Home, an institution dedicated to providing hope and shelter for all ages, from children to the elderly. As the first beauty queen to visit , was deeply moved by the organization’s mission and the compassionate care they offer. 🇿🇦🫶🏻

Resthaven Home was established 48 years ago by a visionary couple committed to giving back to the community by feeding the homeless. Their legacy continues to thrive, as the organization is currently raising funds to expand its facilities and support even more individuals in need of a safe haven. 🙌🏼
