Deon & Rene Theunissen

*Career missionaries since 2014, now serving the Pnong Project.

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.
