Living to expand the Kingdom of God in Stellenbosch, South Africa & Beyond
Vision of Eternity
“After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
-Revelation 7:9-10
Our Family
Austin and Britnie grew up in San Diego, California and became part of All Peoples soon after getting married in January 2011. After a life-transforming time in School of Transformation, they found themselves on a short term mission in South Africa as part of a support team. A few short months later God invited them to South Africa to be part of what He is busy doing in this beautiful country — raising up witnesses to go into the nations to declare His goodness!
We’ve now lived in South Africa for almost 7 years. Our son, Olsen Shepherd, was born in Stellenbosch at the end of 2018 and our daughter, Scottie Hosanna, was born end of February 2022.
Our Mission
In 2017 we said “yes” to God’s invitation to join a team committed to planting a church in South Africa consisting of people from all backgrounds and walks of life (Rev. 7:9), introducing them to the life-transforming message of the Gospel, and teaching them to obey everything Jesus commands (Matt 28:18-20). And, by the grace of God, a diverse church of people who are zealously pursuing God has formed!
We believe God has a call on the lives of many South Africans to plant churches and play a role in reaching many with God’s love. It is our great honor to co-labor with Christ in the encouraging, training, and sending of South Africans from all sorts of backgrounds.
Our Roles
We are honored to be part of the staff at All Peoples Church Stellenbosch, which currently meets at a community center called Amazink in an area of Stellenbosch called Kayamandi. While we are both involved in one-on-one discipleship with various individuals, we also fulfill some specific responsibilities within the church:
Austin serves on the church leadership team as the Executive Pastor, and is the Director of our Training School (School of Transformation).
Britnie helps oversee and guide the worship team while focusing the majority of her attention on discipleship, hospitality, and raising two wonderful kiddos.
You’re Invited to Join in…
We live on the prayers and financial support of generous individuals like yourself.
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus the author and perfecter of faith…”
-Hebrews 12:2
