Our Mission:
“To proclaim good news to the poor, to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favour…to comfort all who mourn, to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair...then they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.” (Isaiah 61)

In the book of Genesis, Rebecca went to
the well for water but as she humbly placed her trust in God her life
was forever transformed. Our initiative Rebecca's Well offers an oasis
for any women in need of refreshment, healing, restoration, renewal and
a transformed life.

Our Capacity Building, Micro-Enterprise and Transitional Housing programmes are holistic, meeting the emotional, physical and spiritual needs of women. Through our initiatives women obtain renewed hope and the skills, abilities and resources needed to thrive both now and in the future.
