Prison Ministries & Theological Education, South Africa - Fraser & Dawn Jackson

Partner profile

After serving in Jos, Nigeria 2012-17, Fraser & Dawn followed God’s call to South Africa in November 2017.

Many colleges in Africa are under-resourced and unable to give students the necessary books, journals and guides.

NetACT, a South African Christian charity providing training to over 40 theological colleges in 14 countries, asked Fraser to develop an internet portal to make library, learning & teaching resources available to colleges throughout Africa. There'll be teaching & study guides, a secure place to store work, a manned helpline & a wealth of ebooks and journals. African church leaders of tomorrow will receive better training which in turn will strengthen the church they serve.

Dawn’s involved in bringing Restorative Justice courses to prisoners, helping them to see the effects of their crimes, take responsibility &, through Jesus, change. This not only offers a new start to the individual but helps to break the cycle which causes South Africa’s incredibly high crime rate.
