Umdoni Project Vlog 6: Shelter
Thanks for joining us to see how we are constructing shelters to protect our animals (and us!) from the coming rainy season. As always, we suggest turning on subtitles.

Umdoni Project Vlog 5: Wendy House
We’re glad you’re joining us for this Vlog. As always, audio is tricky with wind and cars, so please turn on subtitles.
In this video, we see the group hard at work making room for a future gate and building a wendy house that had to be transported from another town in Eswatini.
Umdoni Project Vlog 4: Growing
We continue our vlog series at the farm- another surprise is in store! As always, please turn on subtitles since our audio doesn’t always pick up.
Umdoni Project Vlog 3: Multiplying
We’ve got some multiplication going on at the farm! Make sure you watch to the end for a surprise. As always, please make sure to turn on subtitles since there’s unavoidable background noise.
Umdoni Project Vlog 2: Student Quarantine
We have our first batch of students ready to go to leadership training, but first they must quarantine! William shows us where the students are living on the farm and how they are learning and growing during that time. Some of the audio has a lot of background noise we couldn’t avoid because of the environment, so please turn on subtitles/closed captioning. Watch to the end to see our special and unique way of providing a bit of security for the students.
Umdoni Project Vlog 1: In the Weeds
We love working in communities in Eswatini. With the pandemic lockdown, our CarePoints are currently closed (besides food distribution), but we are up to something fresh on an old pineapple farm!
Empowered Leaders Empower Leaders
Each year, we select eight Swazi nationals to attend 11 months of intensive, self-leadership-focused training. After the program, these leaders return to their communities and serve as passionate examples of what it looks like to follow Christ.
Bhutana shares his background and how leadership training with Swazi Leadership Academy has transformed his life and his outlook for his future. He now wants to give back and create positive change in his community.
Want to help raise up the next generation of leaders in Eswatini?
Building for the Future in Swaziland
Adventures in Missions has been working in Swaziland since 2004. Through strategic partnerships and raising up our own leaders, we now see the ministry serving 7,000 orphans and vulnerable children through community development, agriculture, renewable energy solutions, leadership development, sports, music, medical, and more.
The Anchor Center is the campus and ministry site we are building to pursue our vision of vocational training and ultimate sustainability for this community. Sustainable people make up whole and healthy families, strong and active churches, productive and successful businesses.
They are the cornerstones of sustainable communities. The Anchor Center will include staff offices, a CarePoint, housing for visiting teams, a playground for children, a clinic, a community garden, and with your help, our very first Vocational Training Center!
Our goal is to raise $33,000 for the construction of this Vocational Training Center. Local businesses are looking for skilled workers in the areas of welding, electrical, and mechanics. Our Swazi community members already have access to discipleship, leadership training, and coaching. Vocational training is a foundational and missing piece to help them stand on their own two feet as Christ-followers and sustainable people.
This campaign is completed, it successfully raised $35,065! It’s not too late to help us make positive change in Eswatini!
