OUR SMALL BEGINNINGS OF AN ORPHANAGE VOCATIONAL SCHOOL

Several of our kids in the orphanage are now in the upper grades in school, with four
graduating from their secondary education earlier this year. Since these kids are without family and with no land to inherit as is customary within families in that culture, the Lord has given it to us to provide a way in which these children can earn some income to help them progress in their lives.

One of the ways that we are doing this is by making a small beginning at a vocational school. It is a small start, but significant nonetheless.

We are beginning by purchasing some carpentry tools, as some of the graduates expressed an interest in learning that skill. With the construction projects that God has given us to do in the orphanage, these kids have grown up observing how buildings are made.

We also have purchased a sewing machine, or as it is called there, a tailoring machine. As in most developing countries, the most economical clothes are not those bought off the rack in the store, but what the people make themselves. This is also a skill that will be useful for some to learn.

Please pray with us as we thank God and look to Him for guidance. I will be writing more on this in the upcoming weeks.

We now need to pay a wire transfer fee with every payment, which amounts to $50 each time, but other than that, your donated money will be used only for purchasing food, clothing, schooling, and other necessities of living. We wait until we have $4000-$5000 before we make the bank transfer to make each transfer more economical. Nothing is held back or diverted for any other purpose. Thanks!
