Why we exist

Vision

Joseph Project’s vision is to see every child and teen in South Africa come to salvation, enter the local church and then be consistently discipled in the ways of God and His Kingdom so that we will see a generation of men and women leading South Africa and beyond in the fear and love of God, transforming ‘business as usual’ in every domain of society.

Mission

To evangelise, disciple and then release the anointed leaders of this generation to go out and reach their peers and diciple them to reach more until all have heard the whole Gospel.
To challenge the next generation to regard; humility, self discipline, integrity, morality, hard work, diligence, perseverance and equality as the only acceptable set of norms to live and judge by.
To equip the next generation with the 'tools' to transform their families then communities and finally society at large by providing the leadership and instruction needed to transform this nation.
Maintain a voice into and on behalf of this generation.

To establish and maintain an authentic community of disciples of Jesus Christ that will testify to Him through living out a John 13:35 lifestyle.
Develop the skills to discern and recognise who the boys and girls of peace are in this generation and then implement programmes to train and equip them.
Continually stay in touch with what issues affect this generation and ongoingly champion their cause where they are subjected to injustices regardless in what domain of life these injustices occur, through the means of media, political lobbying, protest action and other forms of activism.
Continually engage with the local church to ensure that effective and sustainable children and teen evangelism and discipleship remain high on their agenda, and then to assist as and when needed to empower local congregations to improve their effectiveness in these two areas of ministry.
To provide facilities and run programmes as response to shortfalls in the local church and/or felt needs amongst the children and teens.
Continually network with teen and children experts and agencies (and to explore for new ones) both inside and outside of YWAM, in order to have a comprehensive array of resources on hand to provide adequate support for the local church as per point 4.
Continually engage with other people and organisations, who have direct contact and/or influence over children and teens, in such a way as to bring about their ‘buy-in’ to our vision and objectives.
To remain informed and able to lead the next generation to their own revelation of what ‘Thy Kingdom come.’ looks like in the South African and broader international context.
Establish a comprehensive means of measuring the effectiveness of Joseph Project’s activities so that at any time it can give an accurate account for its activities and the success it is having in fulfilling its objectives. This applies to Joseph Project’s objectives as well as strategic activities designed to facilitate the fulfilment of the vision.
