Local church celebrates anniversary, to donate winter blankets
As the winter season is quickly creeping in, the Well Church vows to donate 2 000 blankets through their Winter Blankets Drive initiative.
The Well Church celebrated its first anniversary at the Accolades Boutique Hotel in President Park on April 26.
The celebration also included the launch of the church’s winter blanket drive.
Special guests in attendance were dignitaries from Ithokomeleng Old Age Home, Danville Retirement Village and Bakgethwa Children’s Home, who will be the beneficiaries of the blanket drive.
Church representative Rajesh Ramlall said they hoped to donate more than 2 000 blankets to various charity organisations and churches in Midrand and all over the country within the next three months.
“This target supersedes last year’s figure [300] by almost seven times, ” he said.

“Simultaneously, over 2 000 homeless people will be fed sumptuous meals this winter. The church has just purchased a mobile medical clinic to serve the elderly people at various shopping centres in Midrand as well as old age homes in the province.”
Pastor Sherwin Reddy said the church started with only five people at his home in Randburg in 2022 before the family’s move to Midrand in 2023.
“It has now grown to over 130 registered members in just over a year,” he said.
“We are where we are because of the grace of God and the people of the church. The vision of the church is to liberate, educate and dominate. Education is the gateway to endless possibilities and this year the Well Church is on a mission to educate 2 000 learners in Midrand with free tuition.”

Reddy said when people were educated then they were ready to dominate the marketplace and become world changers. “A church should equip its community to become the best at what they do because God has called us to have dominion on this planet. We are here to serve and change Midrand.”
