Through his years of traveling to SA, Bruce has always had a strong ministry to teenagers.  But as he and Pastor Martin began their crusades together, a remarkable reality confronted them: Every service was packed out with teenagers!

It was never calculated, planned, or even hoped/prayed for.  We never targeted teens with special music or any of the "typical" teen things that are done to draw them.  It just happened!  They showed up in droves, consistently making up a shocking 80% of every night's crowd. 

Realizing that God was "doing a special thing" among these SA teens who are mostly from villages steeped in deep poverty and struggle, we decided to focus on them, and the fruit has been breathtaking.  They are coming to the Lord in great numbers, packing out every church we've planted, signing up for the Bible College, helping wherever they can, eager to grow and get strong in Jesus.  Our biggest problem, in fact, is keeping up with the numbers--training enough leaders fast enough to disciple them all.

So we hold special events for teens during every crusade--a special worship service and sports tournament.  The first weekend of every month, Pastor Martin brings them all together from all the different churches, for a special unified service.  We built the business school to equip these kids with skills through which they can build a life for themselves practically...  It's glorious, really, and MarchMin has made a strong commitment to these South African young people who are the future of the nation.  Glory to Jesus!
