Men of Hope. Part 1.

Loading player...
Dr. Ray Legodi welcomes Pastor Happy Shabangu from Men of Hope to the studio for a candid conversation about the ministry’s origins and mission. Although not a church organization, Pastor Shabangu shares his personal journey, including the painful experience of divorce and a dark period of suicidal thoughts, which ultimately inspired the birth of Men of Hope. Established in 2021 following a prophetic word to its current President, Apostle H.N. Shabangu, the organization addresses the many challenges faced by men today. Men of Hope provides a safe and supportive platform where men can openly discuss their struggles and access help, focusing on issues such as gender-based violence, child abuse, and critical health concerns like STDs, HIV/AIDS, and cancer. Men of Hope collaborates widely to promote awareness, education, and rehabilitation for men in society.
