Project: WeRemnant JRaq Orphanage, Nursery and Primary School outside of the refugee camp in Muhokya
Update: The WeRemnant school opened on February 5, 2024, with 60 orphans, most of whom are from the refugee camp in Muhokya. The school is in operation. We have an issue with our learners who were not able to move to their next class (from primary four to primary five) because we don’t have a classroom and teachers, so the learners remained in the same class this year.
Accomplishments/Testimonies: We have experienced improvements through sharing the Gospel. Every evening, learners gather and share the WORD of GOD. There has been academic excellence through the efficient skills of our teachers. There is also improvement regarding the health of the orphans and learners through quality care by the matron and patron of the school. We also made payment of the school’s operational license.
Issues: The main issue we are facing is the need for land which is available for sale for school construction. We also need to renovate the toilet at the school for learners to use. Some orphans have been sick. There is a need for new uniforms and shoes for learners because the ones they have no longer fit them because they have grown out of them.
Follow up: We supervised all the activities, and the subjects are being taught well. There is great improvement among learners.
Next 90 days: We pray we can buy land for school construction, and for farming; also the renovation of the learners’ toilet.

Project: Nsalu Early Childhood Development (ECD) and Lumbadzi Baby Rescue
Update: There has been a decrease in the number of children coming to the ECD. We started with 30 children and now we are down to 20.
Accomplishments/ Testimonies: We were able to donate Bibles to the orphan families so they can continue growing in their spiritual life.
Issues: We currently have one teacher only, so there is not enough attention given to the children in the classrooms.
Next 90 days: We want to be able to have a farm where we can generate income for the orphans to be supported.
