Rob Weddell
Rob and Ilse Weddell’s home is always warm, laughter-filled, and scented with something delicious on the stove. Rob, his wife Ilse, and their two energetic daughters—Gabriella and Bailey-Jo—form the beating heart of a family devoted to faith, friendship, and a friendly gathering around a Springboks game.
By day (and often by evening!), Rob can be found crafting sermons, leading Bible studies, or gently guiding someone through a question of faith. His passion is preaching, teaching, and discipling others in God’s Word—whether behind the pulpit, around the dinner table, or over a shared cup of coffee. He delights when a phrase in Scripture suddenly “clicks” for someone, and nothing thrills him more than seeing lives transformed by unmerited grace. Ilse’s gift is compassion in action. She hears the cry of the poor and responds. She is the driving force behind their church’s compassion ministry. Her heart lights up when Gabriella and Bailey-Jo join her passing out sandwiches or packing care kits.
Together, the Weddells love exploring new cuisines and new places, cheering on their favorite sports teams, and opening their doors (and hearts) to friends old and new. In their home, every meal is a celebration, every journey an opportunity for growth, and every person a gift.

David Kraukamp
David and Sherry Kraukamp’s life together is a tapestry of faith, family, and faithful service—woven through years of laughter, lessons, and love. Their three adult children—Dimee, Kamryn, and Kyle-David—are the treasured threads that complete their picture.
David brings fatherly wisdom and a “let’s get it done” spirit to every room. As a gifted implementer, he turns ideas into reality: whether it’s launching a new project, fine-tuning an existing operation, or quietly mentoring younger believers in the discipline of following Jesus. His steady calm, disciplined faith, and practical guidance have grounded not only his own family but countless others in their church community. Sherry’s gift is organization—and beauty—in action. She has an eye for detail that transforms church gatherings into memorable celebrations: from elegant table settings to thoughtfully arranged floral accents. Beyond aesthetics, Sherry’s passion is women’s ministry. She pours heart and soul into helping women discover freedom and purpose in Christ—leading retreats, hosting small groups, and speaking hope into lives weighed down by busyness or doubt.
In the Kraukamp home, every detail is an opportunity to reflect God’s order and beauty, every conversation a chance to share His wisdom, and every person a cherished part of their story.

Rael Kornblum
Rael and Abbey Kornblum’s home buzzes with life, conversation, and open doors. Their two teenage daughters, Taylah and Jordan, add youthful energy to a household already alive with purpose and faith.
Rael loves people. Whether on the phone or face-to-face, he’s quick to listen, encourage, and advise. He embodies the shepherd’s heart—always watching for the lost sheep and guiding young adults toward maturity in Christ. His warm curiosity and genuine interest make everyone feel seen, heard, and valued. Abbey is an exceptional teacher whose creativity shapes our kids’ ministry. She takes abstract biblical truths and turns them into hands-on lessons that stick—craft projects that illustrate grace, games that reveal God’s character, and stories that spark faith.
At the Kornblums’, the door is never closed. Friends, neighbours, and strangers drop in for a listening ear, a word of wisdom, or a family-style meal. Together, Rael and Abbey cultivate a home where faith is lived out in everyday moments: a late-night heart-to-heart, an impromptu meal or a quiet prayer over parental or relational challenges. It’s a place where everyone—no matter their story—finds belonging, guidance, and the transformative love of Christ.

Waldo Mocke
Waldo and Robyn Mocke’s home hums with melody, laughter, and expectancy—soon to welcome a second child alongside their son, Daniel.
Waldo is a born musician and worship leader whose passion for Jesus pours out in every note and word. As a biblical teacher, his gentle wisdom—far beyond his years—illuminates Scripture in fresh, creative ways. His prayers ignite every room, and his adventurous spirit turns ordinary days into joy-filled journeys of faith.Robyn’s sweetness and joy are contagious. She embodies grace as she administrates the church and passionately leads the kids’ ministry—coordinating teams with cheerful competence. Her support uplifts every serving team, operational group, and staff member, bringing order and encouragement wherever she goes.
Together, the Mockes cultivate a home of worship and wonder. Daniel—and soon his sibling—learns daily what it means to live in the freedom of creativity, the goodness of Christ, and the joy of worship. In their home and church family, every song, every task, and every heart is an offering of love to Jesus.
