We are the Theunissens, born and bred in South African. We have three happy God-fearing children, all with their own careers who live in South Africa. We were both called to be medical missionaries at a camp meeting in South Africa in 2008. We decided to wait until our children finished high school when we applied to AFM.

Avilla and Nana
I love my friends with all my heart. I know that only the Holy Spirit can convict them, and I am praying that He will work mightily in Nana’s life before it is too late.

Glimmer of Hope
Sometimes we go weeks without a glimmer of hope, and then God gives us fresh courage through interactions like that evening with our friends. We realized again that, without a doubt, God is working.

Honoring God
May God keep teaching us how to worship Him and give Him honor with the help of the Holy Spirit Who abides with us forever, in order to bring other people into His presence.

Naturally His
I often wonder how to help my friends make Jesus part of their lives. He has already paid the price for my friends’ salvation even though they do not realize it.
