Jeff and Kim are South African associate missionaries with ZEMA. They both grew up in Durban South Africa and were married in 1991. They have four children: three boys, Jaden (16yrs), Ryan (13yrs), Luke (11yrs), and a daughter, Tori (7yrs). Jeff felt a calling to be involved in ministry in an area called Tshelimnyama. He had no idea that God was using this calling to bring him into the same area ZEMA was working.

When the Hasenknopfs heard Jeff was resigning and keen to visit some of their work they became excited. They had been praying for someone to take over Thomas’ teaching and ministerial roles for some of his ZEBS schools. It was then that they felt led to join ZEMA and are involved in the ZEBS Bible teaching as well as Media Management and Sunday School Teacher Training.
