Grace 2 Grace

There is a shanty town in Ndola with the name meaning "the cursed place" in the Bemba language. The Christians living in that area however, have renamed it to "Mapalo" meaning "Blessing". In that shantytown there are many children that cannot afford to go to school but leaders in that community have come together to start a community school for these children. They recognize that without an education these children do not have any hope to escape this severe poverty. The school has one hundred and ninety students that are taught by volunteer teachers.

For those of you that have traveled with us, you are familiar with Elim Church in Mapalo. They approached us to see if we can help with the school. They wanted to use the church for their school building but do not have any desks or books. We agreed to help them by building new pews for the church that could be used as desks during the week and on Sundays would fold back into pews.

Our team of builders did an incredible job with the desks and we are so proud of the love that was poured into the job. Each pew has a scripture engraved into it that meant something special to those that were building them.

The school is called Grace School. This new project is called "Grace 2 Grace" and we have committed to providing resources and help from our project Grace Academy. If you would like to help us help vulnerable and destitute children in getting an education, please mark your gift "Grace 2 Grace."
