Around Freedom - August 2019

Summer Program

We just wrapped up our summer camp program! In the mornings, each grade had the opportunity to attend 2 weeks of English Enrichment. Grades 1-6 also attended an afternoon day camp that focused on the book of Colossians and the concept of  reconciliation. 

Teams

God provided us with the much-needed extra hands this summer! Over a 9 week span, we had around 380 people helping us out. We couldn't have run all our summer programs with out their help! Along with our English and camp programs, we also held VBS in several of the villages.  

Construction

Teams also play a huge role on the construction side as well! This summer, we had teams painting, laying block, welding, building cabinets, pouring concrete and more! The most exciting thing they helped us with this summer was getting our campground up and running!

Camp

We currently have 3 camp pods built and ready for use! Within the next several weeks, we will begin construction on our camp pavillion. This building will contain bathrooms and a common meeting center. This fall, we will hold our first overnight camp for our 4th - 6th graders!

Around Freedom - April

 Since January, we've had 12 weeks of teams, and it's amazing to step back and see the progress that has been made in the lives of our students. We recently started a 'tutoring' program in our English classes that allows team members to spend 30 minutes with 1 or 2 students. During this time, they practice their grammar and vocabulary. 

You can also see big changes on the construction side. We've had multiple classrooms go up, new porch railings installed in the missionary apartments, 2 new bathrooms completed in the school, final touches being made in our second apartment building and so much more! We are so thankful for all the working hands God has provided!

And so it begins.....

Excavation for our campground started today. We hope to have our first overnight camp in October! We are praying that camp will allow our students to step out of their normal routines and cause them to be challenged in their walk with the Lord.

Pray with us that even now, the Lord will begin to prepare their hearts, and that His name would be glorified! If you are interested in donating to our campground, please click the donate button below and write "Building Fund" in the comments box!
