Celebrating
 30 Years of Impact

For three decades, Missions Ablaze has stood as a beacon of faith and compassion—feeding the hungry, clothing the poor, and uplifting the vulnerable across South Africa.

What began in 1995 as a small mission has become a movement—impacting thousands of lives every single day through practical help and the love of Christ.

An inspiring look into the journey of Missions Ablaze and the heart behind it—our founder, Tinus Lindeque. The unwavering support of the Lindeque family has been a cornerstone of our growth. We are deeply grateful.

Thank you, Tinus, for your words of wisdom, your unwavering faith in our Father, and over 30 years of selfless service to Missions Ablaze. The poor and needy, along with both current and former missionaries, are forever grateful.

Without our hard working Missionaries there would be no food collected, no food delivered, no meals cooked, no maintenance done and many more hungry people out there!. Missions Ablaze thanks God for your help in our mission to Feed the Poor🙏

Pastor Bobby has been part of Missions Ablaze for many years – he currently serves on our Board, does Saturday driving duties and helps out when needed. The Mission assists him in feeding the homeless (often over 200 people) in Phoenix on a weekly basis.

Missions Ablaze has been feeding at Zamokhule Creche for many years. Lives have been changed through the support of our Sponsors.🙏

Thank you Pieter and Family for your support over the years

Peet and his wife Corinne, (who is met and married at Missions Ablaze) spent many years working here. They are still spreading the Word, showing the Jesus Film and attending to the Poor in Mozambique. May their work receive many Blessings in the years to come.

Thank you for caring for the Children at Zamakhule.

Chris, you and your team play a big role in feeding your Community. Thank you for all you do for them. Blessings

Thank you Cindi for seeing the need in your area and feeding your Community of Burbreeze for so many years. May you be Blessed 🙏

Graham and Pam, thank you for your involvement and friendship over the years. Your parents, Uncle Trevor and Aunty Val were pivotal in the start-up of Missions Ablaze.

Rick has been a loyal friend since the start up of Missions Ablaze, travelling from Usa most years to help out . His help in fixing our old vans has been a God-send. We are so grateful🙏

Hein has been part of Missions Ablaze for many years. From spending his childhood holidays here to running the Mission from 2015 and then serving on the Board in later years. Hein, without your devotion to the Poor and Needy, Missions Ablaze would not be the Organisation it is today.🙏
