My name is Armand Visagie. I am a third year BTH student. I live in Cape Town. I enjoy helping people where I can, staying connected with everyone and helping those who need a little boost. I am passionate about many things including sport, writing, reading, hiking, but above all I am passionate about helping people know and find Jesus. As a member of the SRC, I am grateful for this opportunity to be able to help those who need it. I see this position as a position to serve and not be served, therefore, I will do my best. I can't promise to always have the right answers, but I can always promise to try my best.
