Get to Know Joshua Mashele

Ministry Description

I have been involved with Word of Life Ministries in 2016 while I was still in high school, and through DTC, and internship years, thus on the 27th February 2025 in the grace of God I became a full-time missionary with WOL.

My passion is to share the gospel with the youth. I have a burden to walk alongside them, as I would have wanted someone to walk with me before I got saved: someone to be there to listen to them, encourage them, and guide them to the absolute truth that is in the Word of God. Therefore, through relational evangelism, discipleship, and teaching from God’s word, I get the platform to share the work of the LORD in my life.
For today’s youth, there are different types of doctrines in the media and on the internet. Therefore, they need someone who can guide them to the absolute truth through evangelism, discipleship, exhortation, and teaching. I can minister to them and see lives transformed and hearts changed for His glory. In addition to my ministry with Word of Life LCM, I serve by leading the youth at my local church in Durban, and serving on the music team

Our foundational ministry with WOL is to support local churches, specifically training, discipling and encouraging youth leaders to better minister to their teens and children. " Colosians 1:28-29 "

About Joshua

My name is Joshua Mashele. I was born and raised in a hybrid-believing family, and due to that, my heart was empty until I got invited to a youth overnight. There my life was transformed by the grace of God: I believe that Jesus Christ came and died for my sins, was buried and on the third day, he rose again, thus in Him there is forgiveness of my sins, therefore I can have a personal relationship and fellowship with Him. Therefore, I am passionate about sharing what the Lord has done in and through my life to see youth like me come to the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour for His glory. Scripture says: “He does not want any to perish” (John 3:16-17 and 2 Peter 3:9).

Titus 3:5-7 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
