Diocese of Highveld Mothers’ Union Attends Farming God’s Way Training

Fourteen members of the Mothers’ Union from the Diocese of Highveld took part in the Farming God’s Way Saturday training series held on 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 August and 6 September 2025 in Benoni, east of Johannesburg. The sessions were led by a passionate and knowledgeable facilitator whose heartfelt teaching and engaging approach deeply inspired participants, creating a meaningful and transformative learning experience.

A key highlight for many was discovering the deep connection between farming and the Bible realising that many agricultural principles reflect God’s Word. Participants were encouraged to approach farming with intention, excellence, and a sense of faith. The concept of “Stake My Claim” stood out especially, resonating deeply with participants on both a personal and spiritual level.

In her reflection, Mrs Nobesotho Mdebuka, a Mothers’ Union member who attended, said, “Understanding farming in this way was just so phenomenal. Implementing what we were taught at home is a wonderful experience. Seeing the real difference between conventional farming and Farming God’s Way in my own garden is truly amazing.”
