/ ECHO Youth Developmentprovides a support system for vulnerable youth in South Africa. High School Youth and Young Adults from different cultures live together in several houses, called Echo Communities. JACO STRYDOM will present on moving from brokenness to community. Charity is not unique to the church, but the church can offer more – community. The alternative to “throwing crumbs to the poor” is not to throw chunks of bread, but to share a meal. He will explore the deeper journey of followers of Christ in being light and hope.
