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.

Corner of My Eye
I pray that as our shadows fall on someone today, they will be shadows of healing, peace, and love, much as the disciple Peter casts in the book Acts.

Up, Up and Away
I pray that by this experience, the boys will learn how to follow God’s instructions as He bids them, “Follow Me.”

Little Mary
May we become like little Mary. There is a world filled with unreached people just waiting to experience this love and kindness.

Stuck in the Mud
We drove back, praising God for His goodness and contemplating how our lives are sometimes stuck in the mud without us realizing it, and we need others to help us out; or how others can be stuck in the mud, and God can use us to free them.
