Security guard turns businessman

Frans’s dream of running his own business became a reality when he allowed God to change his life. Frans worked as a security

guard for more than three years, earning peanuts and unable to support his Family. He decided to quit his job, determined to find something better. “I wanted to start my own business but I did not have enough money,” said Frans. Life became worse as he did not have any source of income and sometimes his children would go to school without lunch-boxes. “My mother in- law used to help us with groceries and school fees for the children,” said Frans.

When he was invited to Church, he believed that God could change his life. He took part in the chains of prayer and movements of faith.“I learnt how to use my faith and be faithful to God. I believed that God could change my situation and help me to live a better life,” said Frans. Slowly his life started to change. He started his cleaning company with only two cleaning machines and he got a two-year contract with one of the government departments.

When the Campaign of Israel was introduced, he took part and requested God to help him financially so that he could buy more machines and a car for his business. “I also took a step of faith and applied for car finance. I had no doubts that my application would be accepted,” said Frans.

After he committed himself in the campaign, God opened more doors in his life. His business has grown and he has more than 90 employees.

“I was able to buy a brand new BMW X3 car. I am thankful for what God has done for me,” said Frans
