This would be a huge milestone and helpful with international ID. MATTHEW- He finishes his first year of college and is moving home for the summer. Pray for a safe move and than he settles in well back home this month. GUINEA- A new superintendent was just elected. Pray for wisdom and a smooth transition for the national church leadership.

Projects


Children's Tabs

Give Now

We need funds to build 30+ Children’s Church structures in strategic locations throughout Guinea. These structures are used for Sunday school classrooms. They can also used to create kid’s camps and hold VBS services. They will also be used for Christian schools. This is an effective strategy to reach non-Christian children as local schools do not always provide an adequate education so many families are willing to send their children to our Christian schools.
