English Classes

One of our outreaches here on the Plateau has been through English classes. Krischelle Frost, a long-time friend of Lemuel, and the interns, Jon and Anna, have been teaching the classes. We have classes 4 times a week and then a 3.5 hour class on Saturday for professionals that can't come during the week. Not only are students able to learn a valuable skill (speaking English), but the teachers have an opportunity to share Christ with them as well.

One of our students in Reader's Digest




One of our students, Auguste Joseph, was pictured in April's Reader's Digest! He is in medical school and was helping out at the general hospital after the earthquake. Several of our youth helped with relief after the earthquake. We are so proud of them for stepping up and helping.

Roads for Food!

The newest food for work project is a road! People from a nearby community recognized the need for a road that will pass through their area and connect two main roads. They approached us about sponsoring this project. Together with CAM (Christian Aid Ministries) we have been able to provide food as payment for work on this road.
