Student Outreach Teams to Host Missionary Winter Market

The Missionary Winter Market is set to take place this Saturday, 9 May 2026, bringing together several student organisations for an evening of fellowship and fundraising. Held at VARSmark, located on the corner of MC Roode and Bond Street, the event supports outreach teams as they prepare for their upcoming travels.

Supporting Student Missions

The market highlights the work of students from Kandelaar Studentegemeente, Kruispunt Potchefstroom, Every Nation Campus, and Shofar. These groups are currently raising funds for missions scheduled across seven different countries.

Visitors can chat with the team members to hear first-hand accounts of their planned projects. It is an opportunity to learn about the specific needs of these missions and find out how to offer further support.

Food and Fellowship

The gates open at 17h00, and the market will run until 21h00. A variety of stalls will be available to help reach the teams' financial goals. The evening features a selection of traditional South African treats and comfort food, including:

• Pannekoek and Melkkos

• Burgers

• Fresh Coffee

• Custom Stickers

  
  

Alongside the food stalls, the event includes a time for praise and worship, allowing participants to gather together in a relaxed, spiritual setting.

The market provides a simple way to enjoy an evening out while helping local students get their mission work off the ground.
