We have a BIG job to do!

We have a BIG JOB to do!

ALL in the next three months, we hope to:

  1. finish the paddocks and borehole in the new Imala grazing area we call 'Lafiya' (which means PEACE, in the Hausa language!)

  2. build a school for 300 children in Jouro's camp (see a picture of Jouro below!)

  3. repair the Jesus Bridge (THANK YOU Oasis Church!)

  4. build a low wall around the City of Refuge

  5. build six additional classrooms for the growing numbers of Fulani at Apiawoyi Primary school

  6. build a new clinic in Kogi state (THANK YOU Bowman's Creek FM Church!)

Thankfully we have an amazing, strong team (including masons, carpenters and overseers) that we can divide into three groups doing the various projects simultaneously!

PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR TEAM!

Pictured is Director Phyllis Sortor with Alhaji Jouro, a STRONG advocate of education for Fulani children. Four of his kids are presently at Hope Academy, Emiworo. Jouro, a Fulani chief living some distance from Hope Academy, has offered SFA land and requested a school in his area for the over one hundred children living there. How can we say no?!

Seeking monthly givers!

We have a big goal.

We need to increase monthly giving by $6,000/mth to cover the 7 new schools we took on in June!

We receive many BIG financial gifts throughout the year, which enable us to take on new projects - new schools, clinics, and grazing reserves! Praise GOD!

**Recurring monthly gifts help us to rely on a secure monthly income, so that we KNOW that we can cover our expenses,

before we move on to more projects.

CAN YOU HELP US?

We need MORE MONTHLY GIVERS!

THANK YOU BETTY B. for your monthly commitment!

It's a BIG goal, we know. BUT we serve a BIGGER God.

How can we set a small goal when we serve a BIG God?
