Gorom-Gorom School Begins Today!
Update 16 Oct: We now have 37 children enrolled for the school!
Yes, the first classes of the Christian Primary School for Gorom-Gorom begin today.
We don't yet have the school building, and are holding the school in a rented house for this first year. We have just recruited children for year 1, and will be taking in another class each year. In this way we will have a full school in six years.
The head teacher is called Nicodeme, and when I spoke to him a few days ago, he said that we have 24 children enrolled for the class so far. Two of those children will be Halima and Yusufi (right)
Please pray for Yusufi and Halima and the other children, and for Nicodeme as the school gets under way.
Thank you.
