It is a privilege to present our annual report to you. We have had another incredible year of Change Agent Magic - contributing our special puzzle piece to crime prevention and diversion in our beautiful South Africa.
It moves my soul to experience how those we journey with allow themselves the experience of awakening to more of themselves and a deeper sense of purpose. I often say to our students:
>>Do not underestimate the ripple of your awakening<<
We experience its heartwarming impact on how we live and (un)learn together. A living and (un)learning that is authentic and kind… that is generous… that is honest and transparent… that stretches and encourages… that heals our wounds and edits our old stories. It is a living and (un)learning that allows the student their own unique path… also the tough patches! There is nothing more liberating than >>walking the plank<< of a perception!
Come with me. Experience the unique unfolding of a Change Agent Journey. Students awakening to their inner coach, healer and guide and firing up their entrepreneurial spirit all while assisting and guiding others to do the same.

Dear Friends,
There is probably more diversity of religions and sects in India than anywhere else on the earth. Apart from having nearly all the worlds great religions represented, India was the birth place of Hinduism, Buddism, a vital supporter of Zoroastrianism and home to Jainism. Apart from these native religions, India hosted a number of other religions. In 1971, the number of Christians in India was 14.2 Millions, which rose to 32.20 Million at the end of 2011, sharing an overall increase of 55.6%. It is expected that this figure would double by the end of 2020 AD.
So please help us to reach many more unreached people groups with your Loving, Valuable, Generous and Blessed support.
God Bless You
