Mary decided to be with Jesus. She chose presence over performance, stillness over striving. Her response to Him was to sit at His feet. Are you ready to gather with the same desire—postured at the feet of Jesus?"

At 40 years old, Clint feels incredibly blessed to be married to his amazing wife, Michelle. They have shared 12 wonderful years together and recently welcomed their beautiful baby girl, Larky, into their family—a source of immense joy.

Clint and his family moved to the United States from South Africa six years ago to attend BSSM, where they completed three years of school. Since then, he has had the privilege of serving on staff as a revival group pastor for almost three years.

Clint’s journey with the Lord began in his twenties, marked by a radical transformation that sparked a deep and enduring love for God. His passion lies in seeing people fully embrace the benefits of what Jesus accomplished and witnessing the Kingdom of Heaven manifest on Earth. He is wholeheartedly dedicated to helping others experience the fullness of what God has for them.

Gabriël is a missionary from Potchefstroom, South Africa. He is passionate about preaching the word of God and training people to become leaders. His favorite topics are fear of the Lord, holiness, and hearing God’s voice. He has a heart to see the everyday believer to be the catalyst God has made them to be. He is married to Michelle and has two kids, Anastasia and Caleb.

After a radical encounter with God, Gabriël did his discipleship training school with YWAM in the USA. After that time Gabriël was led back to South Africa in 2015, where he pastored a church and started a worship gathering that grew to hundreds of university students every Tuesday night from various churches.

At the end of 2017 Gabriël and his wife Michelle moved to Kona, Hawaii, where they were staff and led the Fire and Fragrance leadership training school for almost two years. At the end of 2019, they recruited 25 staff to join them to plant a Fire and Fragrance Ministry location in Potchefstroom, South Africa, which has since grown to over 150 full time staff.

Mike met Jesus as a sixteen-year-old in Cape Town, and has been following him ever since. Mike is currently a tutor at the School of Leadership and Theology (solt.co.za). He has a background in theology, evangelism and apologetics, having been an itinerant speaker for four years across the UK and Africa before moving back to the UK in 2020 to lead a church community with his wife, Julia. He recently moved back to South Africa with his family to be part of what God is doing in this beautiful nation.

He is passionate about following Jesus, learning, and equipping others to live out their faith in challenging circumstances. When Mike is not thinking too seriously about all this, he enjoys running and South African braais.

Michelle Strydom is a passionate pioneer and leader in Fire and Fragrance South Africa, where her heart burns for seeing young people activated by the Gospel message and empowered to live out the fullness of God's dreams for their lives. With a deep conviction that the next generation is called to rise up in faith, Michelle dedicates herself to equipping youth with the tools they need to understand their identity in Christ and walk boldly in their God-given purpose.

Juhen Pratt encountered Jesus during Victory Gap Year in 2019, where he felt called to youth ministry. He began serving at his local church, completed an internship, and started his theology studies. In 2021, he was appointed as the youth pastor at Victory Church in Jeffreys Bay, where he now leads Frontline Youth.

Juhen is passionate about seeing young people encounter Jesus, walk in freedom, and live boldly in their identity as sons and daughters of God. He also ministers in local schools, equipping students to live on mission.

In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his wife, playing tennis, seeing friends, and reading.
