MK School Dedication

Brenda and I have greatly enjoyed teaching in the newly renovated MK (missionary kid) Elementary school here in Kudjip. The school floor plan includes a large central room that we use for opening, eating lunch, and whole school activities; a library area; two classrooms; and three bathrooms. The openness of the floor plan, and the many windows provides for a bright, cheery atmosphere. On September 26th, a dedication ceremony was held at the school. Stephanie planned and emceed the ceremony. Students sang and signed Jesus Loves Me, and shared memory verses. Katherine’s delicious spice cake was enjoyed by all. Our students presented the thank you cards they had made to those adults who were on the planning team, as well as the workers who were present. Pastor Apa prayed for the school, and then individuals prayed for each student and teacher. Thanks to some very generous people in the states, our school now has a projector, 6 iPads, and new read aloud books for the primary classroom. We greatly appreciate the two work and witness teams that came all the way from Xenia, Ohio as well as the team from West Texas to work on the school. A huge thank you goes to Randy for his leadership during the project which began in mid-May. Students take great pride in their new school, and busily perform their cleaning chores at the end of each school day!
