Incredibly needy people from different church backgrounds were identified by a respected local leader. After a preliminary visit from Mr, Kirk, Mr Pflaum and Mr Crispin our senior maintenance supervisor, the students were split into small groups. Under instruction from our workers team and a few teachers they went off to help some of these people. They repaired some broken/leaky roofs, filled in holes in walls and covered windows with mosquito wire to hopefully reduce the ability of the mosquitoes to enter these people’s homes. One lady had a washroom improved so it is now private, another older couple had a new toilet dug and made, another a new outside kitchen. All in all the students and workers made a massive impact in the lives of these 5 different families.
This project is just the starting point of what Amano hopes to do in the future as it encourages its students to look outside of the school grounds at the local people and see the need that they can so easily meet. Christ came to save and help everyone and gave his people a command to look after those in desperate need. Perhaps you could help support this aspect of the school’s outreach? Watch out for more info in the coming weeks.
Mr Kirk
