Discipleship Classes

Once a month, Prince, our HFA worker and Bible student at Buduburam Camp, teaches a Bible class to our sponsored children. This is done on the last Saturday of every month and their time together also includes a meal. Here are some pictures of their most recent class. The kids enjoyed some Coke to drink as a special treat and some parents also sat in on the class.

July 26 Liberian Independence Day

July 26 was the Liberian Independence Day. Hearts for Africa provided funds so our sponsorship kids at Buduburam Refugee Camp could go on a field trip day outing. They took a bus and went to a beach resort for the day. We also provided funds so the children could have a lunch during their day.
HFA sent some additional funds so the church on the camp, where Prince (HFA Bible student) leads as pastor, could enjoy a meal together for their celebrations on this day.

As there is no electricity, all cooking is done outdoors over coals.

School/Church roof has been completed

The new roof for the IFEM Christian Academy has now been completed. We praise God for our generous donors who have made this project possible! This is such a blessing to these students who can now go to school when it is raining and the church can assemble for worship despite inclement weather conditions!
Here are a few pictures of the finalized project:
