#ICCMBrazil 🇧🇷 Ninth grade graduation was held in the (miracle) gymnasium at our ICCM school in Monte Santo, Brazil. Ninth grade is the conclusion of “Fundamental” education in Brazil. Although it is not a certainty yet, we plan for many of these ninth graders to be able to continue their education in the tenth grade as of February.
Almost all the pieces are in place with the Government of Bahia for the school to begin offering tenth grade in 2019. (Continued prayer appreciated on this point.)

#ICCMCongo 🇨🇩️ This is the goats project at Linda Stryker Academy in DRC. When the goats are ready for sale, they are sold and the money is used to help orphaned and very poor children’s school fees.

Lyrics:
It’s a pleasure to belong to such a wonderful school
Where we are being taught science and how to know God
It’s a pleasure to belong to such a wonderful school
Oh, What a wonderful school!

Oh what a wonderful school!
In late October the government inspectors visited our school in Monte Santo, Bahia, Brazil. One of them is holding the more than 300 pages of documents required to make the final application.
The inspectors were satisfied that the documentation can now be submitted to the State government. It may then be approved, or there may be physical modifications to the school or other changes required before they can begin offering 10th grade. So far as we know, 10th grade in February is still a possibility. It is urgently needed. It’s still difficult and relatively rare for children in in the Monte Santo area to complete high school. Pray for this process to be accomplished to God’s glory and for the benefit of the children.
“Thank you” in Amharic is “Ameseginalew” something I learned on my visit to two schools (Jimma and Beta Genet) in Ethiopia this October. These schools are bringing change to their communities. The parents want their children enrolled in our ICCM schools because they provide quality affordable education. Also, they teach good values and uphold discipline for … Read more

Ethiopia is home to five excellent ICCM schools. Children may be living in material poverty, but their educational environment is rich. One of those schools is at a crossroads, where desperate need meets tremendous opportunity. The town of Alem Tena, an hour or so from Addis Ababa, suffers from four serious problems. A very hot … Read more
