Author, Educator, Ministry Worker & Cat Breeder
I’m so glad you’ve taken the time to visit! You'll find information about my books, and updates on what I am doing - as author, educator, in ministry and with my favourite 'hobby' - my cats! You can also visit with Peter - click on About us to find his posts. I keep friends and family updated with Aunty Peggy's news under About Us too!
Since 1983, Peter and Vivian Jenkins have had the privilege of working with Christian Leaders in Zimbabwe, Zambia and DRC. They've also been involved in Education since 1982.
No longer breeding cats, Vivian enjoyed her hobby time as a registered breeder of Persian Chinchillas (Original Longhair Cats in SA!) from 2017 - 2021.
From my Blog:
2018 has been a tough year for Mum. On July 24, she fell and broke her hip. We are SO grateful to the doctors and staff at Victoria Hospital in Wynberg for the outstanding care they gave her. After her hip replacement op, an amazing physio friend helped Mum with rehab, as did the wonderful staff at Nerina Gardens. At age 88, Mum is walking again (with a walker) and back in her own room at Nerina Gardens. This has been a set-back and Mum is definitely more frail than before the fall.

She has made a wonderful recovery, and we are grateful to God.
