~Dr. Greg Johns, former AGWM South Africa Area Director
“Sarah Careins is an amazing combination of personality, passion and producer! She is a shining example of what God can do with a life fully submitted to God. Sarah has excelled in life, cultural adjustments, relationships and in building a national youth ministry from the ground up during her first missionary term in South Africa. Sarah is an exceptional person and missionary and is worthy of your spiritual and financial investment!”
~Rev. Gordon Lebelo, IAG National President
“Investing in the lives of South African youth in general and the International Assemblies of God in particular is the best gift that our church has received through the ministry of Rev Sarah Careins. She spent many hours in prayer, in developing training material and traveling countrywide, training and equipping our youth for the harvest. We have a solid national youth leadership team with tools to empower other young people. We thank God for giving us such an asset!
As a national church we are indebted to Sarah Careins and all churches in the US, who supported her financially and through prayers to fulfill her God-given vision in South Africa. May God richly bless you. Rev Careins' assignment is not complete, our prayers is that God should open doors once more for her to come back to South Africa as soon as possible.”

“ Here's what you need to know about Sarah Careins, she's an amazing young lady with a huge heart for God and people! I've worked with Sarah both directly and indirectly several times on the field in South Africa over the past several years and have been impressed with her ability to connect with and care about people.
Although she's not limited in her effectiveness to any one demographic, she is especially impactful with young adults and students. This is a huge and obvious need in South Africa. There are nearly 3 dozen significant campuses in this amazing country with students coming from all over the continent to study there. Literally reach a University student in South Africa and you touch the African continent!
Sarah has student ministry skills and Chi Alpha history. She has an ability to relate to the student, and a strong connection and rapport with the local church in South Africa. I am very excited about her willingness to return to SA and am sure she will be effective!”
