Re-Wired: Get Your Brain Back – shows how
pornography addiction is like a drug in the way that it
affects your brain (science behind the harmful effects
of addiction on the brain is shown, no inappropriate
pictures!). Most importantly, we teach learners how to
protect themselves from digital cocaine.
The Truth About Abortion: “When does life begin?”.
What does abortion really involve? What is its impact
on the mother and father?
PROMOTING HOME EDUCATION
Another key focus of our ministry is promoting home
education. Visit www.christianlibertybooks.co.za
for excellent, home education curriculum and resources.
Who is Africa Christian Action? Launched in 1991,
Africa Christian Action is an educational and advocacy
ministry, seeking to mobilise Christians to be Salt and
Light in their congregations, communities and countries.
We particularly focus on pro-life and pro-family issues
and religious freedom. In this changing and chaotic time,
we present timeless Biblical principles on all areas of life
to a confused world. We are active in the public square
through our Biblical and historical analysis of sociopolitical
issues, calling Christians to pray for Revival and
work for Biblical Reformation. For over 30 years our
Biblical Worldview Seminars and Summits have inspired
thousands to apply the Lordship of Christ in all areas
of life. We have organised delegations to government
officials and have presented submissions on legislation to
Parliament. We are evangelistic and use these issues as a
springboard for the Gospel, recognising that individuals
need a new nature through regeneration, for the
Kingdom of God to come in their lives before they can
transform society. We give presentations at schools and
churches across South Africa. Our primary focus is South
Africa and throughout Africa.
For over 25 years we have been hosting a weekly
programme, called Salt and Light on Radio Tygerberg
104FM. On our Africa Christian Action Facebook
page, we share photos from outreaches, events and other
helpful links to inform, inspire and involve.

EVERY DAY
OVER 250 BABIES
ARE KILLED
BY ABORTION
IN SOUTH AFRICA…
YOU CAN SAVE LIVES
STOP ABORTIONS
“You are the salt of the earth...
You are the light of the world...
let your light shine before men,
that they may see your good deeds
and praise your Father in Heaven.”
Matthew 5:13-16

Be Informed. Our pro-life resources will
educate you about what the Bible says about the
preciousness of each person made in the image of God
and God’s Commands to protect innocent life. We are
available to give presentations at your pastors’ fraternal,
church, or school about how you can stand for life.
You can mobilise your congregation to make a positive
difference in your community. ACA can provide helpful
information on how to counsel and support women
facing a crisis pregnancy and counseling resources
for those who have had abortions. We can also screen
pro-life documentaries (e.g. The Hard Truth, The
Abortion Matrix), or dramatic films (e.g. Unplanned,
Gosnell) at your cell group or church. Pro-Life
Information Packs are available.

Be Interceding. ACA can equip you to more
effectively intercede for lives to be saved.
“I looked for a man among them who would
build up the wall and stand before Me in the
gap on behalf of the land so I would not have
to destroy it.” Ezekiel 22:30

Be involved: Educate and enlist others in this
Fight for Life. Keep reading for more information
on grassroots action projects, annual outreaches and
schools presentations. “Speak up for those who
cannot speak for themselves” Proverbs 31:8.
GRASSROOTS ACTION — FEET ON THE STREET
Outreaches Outside Marie Stopes Abortion Clinics
There are a several groups around South Africa that
are actively involved in praying, counselling and
sharing the Gospel outside abortuaries. We can equip
you with pro-life placards and tracts to witness for Life
outside an abortuary near you, or connect you up with
groups in your city. “Rescue those being led away
to death; hold back those staggering toward
slaughter. If you say, ‘But we knew nothing
about this’, does not He who weighs the heart
perceive it? Does not He who guards your life
know it? Will not He repay each one according
to what he has done?” Proverbs 24:11-12
ANNUAL OUTREACHES
Sanctity Life Sunday: Considering that the
population of South Africa is over 60 million, there
are probably over 500 000 congregations in South
Africa. If just half of them could be inspired to study
what the Word of God says on when life begins and
what abortion is; if only half the churches in South
Africa observed Sanctity Life Sunday (last Sunday
in January) in Bible study, repentance and prayer - then
we could begin to end the legalised killing of babies.
March for Life to Parliament: The 1 st of February
every year marks the anniversary of the legalisation of
abortion on demand in South Africa. Since 1 February
1997, more than one million, eight hundred thousand
babies have been killed in South Africa - by abortion
- legally. “Does not wisdom call out? Does not
understanding raise her voice? On the heights
along the way, where the paths meet, she takes
her stand; beside the gates leading into the city,
at the entrances, she cries aloud.” Proverbs 8:1-3
Women’s Day Missions in the Mall: Women and
girls need real protection and respect – practical action,
not pious platitudes from hypocritical politicians and
meaningless public holidays! Why not use National
Women’s Day (9 August) as an opportunity to inform,
inspire and involve people in promoting awareness
and taking action against the exploitation of women in
trafficking, prostitution and pornography? On 9 August
we set up literature tables in different shopping malls,
primarily focusing on informing and motivating people
to make a difference in stopping human trafficking.
Sign up to volunteer or organise your own Women’s
Day outreach in a mall. “Who will rise up for Me
against the wicked? Who will take a stand for Me
against evildoers?” Psalm 94:1
Life Chain Sunday: The first Sunday in October
every year is International Life Chain Sunday. Join
together with tens of thousands of pro-lifers worldwide
in prayer and action. With messages such as “Abortion
Kills Babies”, “Abortion: One Heart Stops, Another Heart
Breaks,” “Adoption - the Loving Option”,“Choose Life! So that
you and your children may live,” and “Babies are a blessing,”
Life Chain participants have informed millions of
passing motorists as they line the streets of their cities.
The Life Chains are one of the positive and practical
ways that you can mobilise your congregation to be a
voice for the pre-born. “Could you men not keep
watch with Me for one hour?” Matthew 26:40
SCHOOLS PRESENTATIONS
(AND YOUTH GROUPS / CELL GROUPS / CHURCHES)
The current Life Skills Curriculum does not
adequately address the serious issues of pornography
addiction, human trafficking, or abortion.
Unfortunately for youth, they have few, if any,
resources dedicated to preventing – or even addressing
these issues. ACA has given these presentations at
schools across Africa. We offer these presentations for
free as a service to the community. The length of the
presentation is flexible, depending on where and to
whom you would like us to give it. The presentations
are interactive, and we use PowerPoint, with short
videos. These are age appropriate and sensitively
presented. We also have a primary school version of
Traffick Proof. Request our letter to send to teachers
at your school or youth group.
The Traffick Proof presentation details different
scenarios (such as overseas job opportunities) that
traffickers could use to deceive their victims into being
trafficked. The presentation equips youth with the skills
to ask the right questions and avoid being trafficked
(kidnapped / enslaved).
