Outside the Bowl

In 2005, Jae and Debra Evans moved to South Africa. Not long after, they began a discipleship program with some Xhosa kids in a township called Mbekweni. About 60 kids came. But many were too hungry to hear God's Word. Two years later, the couple began feeding kids before the program. The children multiplied. God was working and the Spirit was moving in the Evans. In 2007, Jae and Debra shared their hearts with a North Coast Church pastor, Chris Brown. He traveled to South Africa. He saw the need. And he quickly took part in the vision. In 2008, the first food center opened in Paarl, South Africa and the idea of “Super Kitchens” was born. It fed 1.5 million people in its first year of operation and continues to feed thousands everyday. We are driven by Jesus' command to feed the hungry. And we're committed to making a real impact. Look what we've accomplished so far, together. Since 2007 we have built 5 super kitchens. We are currently operating in 3 countries and have produced over 11 million hot meals.
