| ABOUT OUR NAME... |
The name Beautiful Gate originates from: Acts 3:2 Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" Then Peter said, Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk. |

ABOUT | Our Mission
“Beautiful Gate South Africa seeks to know God and to make Him known by reflecting His image as we care for and protect children, empower and preserve families and mobilize our community.”
Who we are
Beautiful Gate Ministry is an interdenominational Christian organisation providing care and support to vulnerable children and families. We believe that the best place for each child is within a family, and that the best way to support families is to enable their community to provide support.
In South Africa, our community based ministry is situated on the outskirts of Cape Town, in the informal area of Lower Crossroads. Here we aim to restore the capacity of the community and of families to care for their children or, where this is not possible, to find alternative families.
In this regard Beautiful Gate has emerged as a trustworthy partner to the local community and to other NGO’s as well as government in addressing issues of HIV/AIDS and its impact on children, families and the community.
We are a registered not for profit organisation in South Africa, 005086 NPO and a public benefits organisation, PBO No. 130002944.
