Shawn Plunkett’s Story

Today I had a volunteer approach me named Given (named by his parents as a gift from God) from the Charity and Faith Church, who began to share his perspective on the clinic.  Within a sentence I knew I had to get that on video.  I got out my camera and begin to record.  What he said caught me off guard and struck me to the core.  He told me how he felt our mission was healing marriages in South Africa.  He said that normally men and women do not go places and do things together, especially the older ones.  The men are involved in business or other affairs.  He said it is so beautiful to see husbands and wives holding hands and coming to the clinic together.  He said he believes this is an instrument from above to restore marriages in the area of Mamelodi and thanked us for being here.   Please watch the video as I cannot do it justice in words.  It can be seen on Facebook at One Sight South Africa 2011.
