Dr. Simphiwe and Mrs. Mpho Mandlesilo have been passionate about serving in ministry since their school days. Both grew up in the Apostolic Faith Mission (AFM) Church, where their love for God and His people was nurtured through active involvement in Youth Ministry.
Mpho served faithfully at AFM Mt. Gerizim in Vosloorus until her marriage in 2016, while Dr. Mandlesilo ministered at AFM Germiston from 2014 to 2022, focusing on the deliverance and healing ministries.
In 2020, God led them to start a prayer movement known as the Ruimsig Prayer Group. What started with only three members quickly grew into a vibrant gathering of about seventy believers from different denominations, united by a passion for prayer and fellowship.
Founded in 2022 with just five members — including the Domestic Assistant and two family members, Lerato and Percy Manenzhe — the church has grown remarkably. Today, it has about ninety members and more than twelve active ministries serving and advancing God’s Kingdom.
