The family of Karl and Jenny Teichert are serving the Lord as missionaries with OC Africa, in South Africa. They moved to Johannesburg in November, 1997 with their four children; Ann, Scott, Stephen and John. Karl serves as the Southern Africa Director of the Southern Africa Regional Team. Their vision is to see a healthy, Bible-based church established in every unreached village and community in South Africa, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Zambia and beyond. Their strategy is to partner with key African church leaders to research, train, and mobilize the body of Christ to complete the Great Commission. They are striving to equip local leaders in Southern Africa to reach their nations for Christ and send missionaries into other countries as well.
“What can you do for me?”
Dear Family and friends,
I want to thank many of you who have been praying for the ministry in Finetown and to give a brief history, as well as describe the opportunities that I have had the privilege of being a part of for many years.
Finetown is an informal settlement about 45 kilometers from our home. The population is about 20,000 people, with an unemployment rate of over 80 percent. I serve a project called Tsoaranang (“Joining Hands”), based in the home of Mama Florina, a 70-year-old widow and mother to 10 orphan children ...
... One of our Southern Africa team associates, Gabriel Francis, works with a ministry called Africa Skills. Africa Skills provides entrepreneurial coaching and mentoring for people who have small businesses in order to further develop the entrepreneurs and their businesses.
My dream has always been to help the caregivers become more self-sustainable ...

Jenny
