Nakekela is thankful for the Donations of Food SPAR Phola Mall, Bread from Lucas Mpyeng at Mountain View, Gift Voucher from Shoprite Phola Mall. May God bless you thank you for your support and being a great help to Nakekela

Some staff members of Nakekela had the privilege of attending   Fire & Rescue Public Awareness provided by the Thembisile Hani Station (Nkangala District Municipality). We are so thankful for the knowledge and light they shared with us we were reminded of the following: Importance of knowing how to use fire extinguisher and different types of fire extinguishers,Fire extinguisher must be used only in case of a small fire and if the whole house is burning you must call the nearest fire station for help and remember the assembling point.

Nakekela is thankful for the donation of Food we received from SPAR Phola Mall, Meat from Roots Butchery Phola Mall through the Kwamhlanga  Business Association  and Clothes from Pastor Masilela from the Sabbath Church  (SDA) in​Gemsbokspruit. Thank you for your support. May God bless you and keep you. 

​​​​​Filled with joy and praise in our hearts God answered prayers for Funding with FPD (Foundation for Professional Development) South Africa. We are working together with Department of Health and Local Clinics. This is a new expansion of our current duties. Our Home-Based Care Workers were trained to do HIV Home Based testing, Screening diseases such as TB, STI, Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar, VMMC (Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision), CD 4 Count and ART. We tested and screened 750 clients and referred 38 clients for treatment to local clinics. Clients who tested HIV negative were provided with prevention methods.  We also attended M&E (Monitoring and Evaluation) training and we report daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annually. We recruited three staff members joining the Home-Based Care Team for the new project. Tweefontein G, Tweefontein H, Tweefontein A and Tweefontein M clinics are providing us the testing kits and we are providing them with our daily statistics

​Would like to thank Thuli Pelewo and some staff members from the Department of Social Development by assisting with cleaning and ironing. And would like to appreciate Sister Mabena- the Manager and some staff members from Tweefontein G Clinic for helping us with wound dressing, bathing patients, ironing and cleaning and so thankful for a box full of Adult Nappies, linen Savers and cakes for our in-patients. Thank you all for making Mandela month so special to Nakekela and God bless you for your effort

Sello Nhlapo Nightwatchmen, support group leader and Martha Mtsweni, Home Based Care Coordinator and Support Group Leader were excited to help two of the support group members to build two big tower gardens at their homes. This is to encourage our out patients to eat a balanced diet even at home. 

​ Julia’s Story
 
Nakekela my Home
Nakekela a place of Love
Nakekela a place of Peace
Nakekela a place of God
 
My name is Julia Mthimunye and am married with two sons. I stay near Nakekela and I used to rent a room at Nakekela before it become a Community Centre. I started to work part time as a domestic worker in 1998 when I was still at school at the age of 16 years old.
In 2011 the project called CPW was formed and it is where I started to see how committed I am to work for my community. I love Nakekela because I have good memories of Nakekela. At CPW we were working together with other organisations in the community such as Police Stations, Schools, crèches, Clinics, Dumping sites, Churches and NGO’s. We came to Nakekela to help during the kitchen shift of Mrs Masuku.  They were so kind to me and that encouraged me to ask Mrs Grobler if I could come the following day to help finish up the ironing. As I volunteered to help she did not allow me to work for free but paid me a small stipend. Nakekela is a place of healing spiritually, physically and emotionally.
Following this Dorcas Mathibela, the General Manager, called me to come and work part time in the kitchen and I would run quickly and go to work at Nakekela (as I stay on the next plot). The Nakekela staff welcomed me with warm hands in 2012 when I was employed to work full time at Nakekela as a housekeeper. When I started to work at Nakekela I did not know anything about HIV/AIDS even though there is some information on radio, television and the newspaper.  Since I had a lack of interest but I learned a lot since I started to work at Nakekela. From June 2015 I started doing HIV/AIDS training and presentations with the training team to NPO’s youth groups, police, church members and their pastors and other community members.
In July 2017 I was promoted to be the Kitchen Manager, I could not believe it at first, I was overwhelmed with joy and was crying as I looked back at where I came from. To manage people is not easy but with God is nothing impossible. Thank God for the management team which helps me to be a better leader. Dorcas Mathibela, the General Manager, leads by example and always advises and encourages us to pray and ask Wisdom from God. I am proud to say at Nakekela we have a wonderful mother sister/friend, and hope to grow to be more like her.  I learned more about who God is at Nakekela and learned to invite him into everything I do. Psalm 122:6-9 encourages me a lot. Nakekela is a sweet home, a place of peace and helps many people to improve their lives and I am very thankful I am one of them.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! "May they be secure who love you! Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!" For my brothers and companions' sake I will say, "Peace be within you!" For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
