Temporary classrooms

With our charity registration still in progress, we’ve been unable to purchase the land that has been offered to us for building a permanent school. Yet, the need continues to grow—currently over 70 children are registered for first and second class, ready to begin in September.

The rainy season is now in full force and not expected to break until October. With monsoon rains, it is impossible for the children to learn on an open veranda. Therefore we have made the decision to close the veranda with brick on one side to form a long, narrow classroom. On the other side we have extended out  from the veranda to form two larger classrooms.

This would not be possible without the unexpected gifts of money that we receive towards the work in Guinea-Bissau. We are so grateful for those who give to support the work. We also look forward with expectation to the day that we can formalise the work as a charity and get on with building the school! Until then, we continue to trust—and ask for your prayers as things move slowly forward.
