At dusk in Ondjiva, a few young Angolans may gather on plastic chairs with a Bible, a notebook and a question: who will help this neighbourhood follow Jesus?

It is not a platform. It is not a conference hall. It may be a yard, a veranda, or the shade of a mango tree after a long day of school, work and family responsibilities. Someone prays. Someone reads Scripture. Someone speaks honestly about fear, sin, family pressure or unemployment. Slowly, quietly, disciples are being made.
