ilberforce church and built diversionary block walls to alleviate the flooding that takes place there each year during their rainy season. It was our first step in an effort to improve the infrastructure of that church with a view to it becoming the center of community life in that area. In the fall, the education team traveled to Lungi to work with the teachers of The Door International Academy. We brought them teaching supplies and held teacher training clinics to demonstrate how best to use those supplies in the classroom. They also needed government certification and we are helped them with both. PROJECTS
We have decided that under our new banner we would focus first on the needs of the Lungi school. Teacher Certification: The cost was approximately $2,500 for their five teachers to study and get their government certification. They have attended during two summers and obtained their certification during the following school year. There are photos in the picture gallery at signpostmissionworks.org
New school building: The school currently meets in the church sanctuary. This is a problem on two fronts; first, because they hold services each night of the week and the “classrooms” (areas of the sanctuary separated by partitions) must be disassembled each day after school and reassembled each morning before school begins. Second, the government is displeased that school is being held in the sanctuary of a Christian church. They need a separate school building and have developed architectural plans to that end. The estimated building cost is $80,000 USD.
