Oppad Sonder Bagasie [On The Way Without Luggage]
Dramatized presentations of a story or parable. Performing artist Marié du Toit sharply depicts everyday life: Each scene/every song represents a different character in her moment of need, her hours of struggle and her days of growing weary. From scene to scene she suggests that each persona lies down her burdens at the cross of Jesus. The performance is wrapped by the famous Onse Vader (Our father – the Lord’s Prayer) as an outcry for His intervention in response to those who come to Him.

Work with GRN on this language
Are you passionate about Jesus and communicating the Christian gospel to those who have never heard the Bible message in their heart language? Are you a mother tongue speaker of this language or do you know someone who is? Would you like to help us by researching or providing information about this language, or help us find someone who can help us translate or record it? Would you like to sponsor recordings in this or any other language? If so, please Contact the GRN Global Studio.
Note that GRN is a non profit organization, and does not pay for translators or language helpers. All assistance is given voluntarily.
GRN also has opportunities for Christians to contribute meaningfully to evangelizing unreached people groups through audio Bible stories, Bible lessons, Bible study tools, evangelistic messages, songs and music. You can assist missions or churches involved in evangelism or church planting through sponsoring or distributing materials. We also have exciting opportunities to be involved in missions remotely from wherever you are in the world. If you regularly attend a Christian church, and believe the Bible, you can play a part in mission, and see unreached people groups hear the gospel of Jesus Christ. Contact your local GRN office.
