A Nation in Covenant
South Africa
“I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.”
— Genesis 9:13 (KJV)
The Heritage
South Africa’s story is the world’s classroom for reconciliation: a nation that looked its own history in the eye and chose forgiveness over revenge. Out of that choice came the Rainbow Nation — eleven official languages, countless peoples, one shared future.
The church stood at the center of that testimony, and she still does. Jerome Jones Ministries stands in covenant with South Africa’s churches — honoring her leaders, resounding her testimony of reconciliation, and resourcing her teaching — praying that the token of the covenant keeps arching over the whole nation.
The Covenant Artifact — The Woven Basket
The woven basket of Zululand — many strands, one vessel, one strength. South Africa calls itself the Rainbow Nation: many peoples, many tongues, one nation — a living reminder of the covenant bow God set in the clouds.
The Fruit We Pray For
Reconciliation is goodness in public — grace you can see from across the street. South Africa has already shown the world what that fruit looks like. We pray it keeps ripening: in congregations that model the nation’s healing, in leaders who serve rather than rule, and in a people whose goodness makes the Gospel credible.
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” — Galatians 5:22–23
The Ministry Partner
to come
Covenant Partner — South Africa
Our partner ministry in South Africa will be introduced as formal announcements are made. We honor our partners’ timing and their leadership, and we share their names with the same care they extend to us.
Carry This Light Forward
Worldwide evangelism moves the way the Gospel always has — one carrier at a time, sustained by prayer, resourced by partners, and honored by God. If the work in South Africa stirs something in you, we would be honored to have you stand with it.
