About Us

“As for my family and me, we will serve the Lord” Joshua.24:15b
(Good News Bible)

Charles Kendall:

I was born in 1962 and raised in a Christian home. I invited the Lord into my life at the age of seven (see my testimony). Since then God has been a reality, not a ‘concept”, for me. The reality of the Holy Spirit in me, guides me daily. I love our Lord Jesus Christ for who He is.

Like with so many people, God has worked wonders in my life and therefore it is my desire to share some of those testimonies through the Testimony Treasures platform.

Stephné Kendall:

Born in 1964 as the youngest of three sisters, I was raised by Christians parents. My mother was my example of faithfully spending time with God daily, being the only person that I knew who diligently read through the Bible every year, for many years. I completed two Honours degrees and have ever since been a student for life, still studying and challenging myself every day. Among other things, I spent about 20 years as a high school teacher and Christian Counsellor and then as a college lecturer until retiring into full time Ministry and Mission with Charles. Teaching is still my passion. Although I am somewhat of an introvert I have served the Lord in numerous capacities and will continue to do just that. My Father in heaven has been so good to me and I will gladly share some of my testimonies with you.

Charles and Stephne Kendall met as students at the Rand Afrikaans University (RAU, now UJ) in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1982, got married in 1986 and were later blessed with two beautiful daughters, Aimée and Andrea. They are both married and four lovely grandchildren have been added to our family.

Our Journey: From a Dream to a Calling

Since 2010 Stephne and I have been talking about our desire to one day use our gifts, talents and skills on a full time basis to glorify our Heavenly Father. We often prayed about this knowing that God would not reject our desire. This created great excitement within me – wondering where God would lead us.

The puzzle of what, where, when, why and how began to take shape when it dawned upon us that the ideal time to quit our careers would be at the end of February 2017. This provided us with a target date and consequently we were able to start planning for a Ministry. The what, why and when have now been answered. The two remaining questions i.e. where and how continued to elude us.

We love travelling. God knows this! So here is the wisdom of our Lord. On the night of 19 September 2014 I simply could not fall asleep. At 01:37 there was a voice in my head saying: “Here is the rest of the puzzle – Testimony Treasures.” The Testimony Treasures Ministry was described to me in detail. God said that he was going to send Stephne and me into the world (Matthew 28: 19-20), starting in Rustenburg, South Africa, to gather the testimonies of witnesses (Acts 1: 8) and to share that globally. This mission was spelled out for me as follows (in Afrikaans, my mother tongue):
“Gaan kollekteer en publiseer die getuienisse oor God se werke,
by die mense in Sy kerke,
en versprei hierdie goeie nuus, sonder perke.”
When translated it says: “Go collect the testimonies of people about the work of God in their lives, publish it and spread it all over the world.”

So there it was, a complete picture of what we are meant to do. All the questions have been answered and confirmed. Now it is up to us to roll it out. To accomplish this we require your assistance. We humbly ask that you share your testimony with us; we will publish it for the world to read so that God can be glorified.

Email us at: testimonytreasures@gmail.com or contact us on (+27)82 433 0018 and we will assist you from there. It is that easy.

Your testimony may change someone’s life for the better. What greater reason do you need than to be a blessing?
