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.

Frontier Stories
Our Four-Cylinder Miracle
We are so privileged to be here. Every day, we see how much our people need the loving peace and saving grace of Isa al Massi. We also see how Satan is trying his best to stop the good work from happening in this part of the world. Please pray for the people of Mesopotamia.

Hide and Seek
When the joy of exploring fades and we realize that we are lonely, we yearn for reassurance that God wants to find us—that His love will never stop pursuing us.

Precious Cargo
In this country, we are not allowed to proselytize. A church member must have dropped that precious cargo—knowingly or unknowingly—and it changed this family forever.

Praising God in the Noise
We pray every day that we will be able to return to our Allaja Project soon, but in the meantime we trust God’s plan. We are content and continue to praise Him in the noise.
