Details & Tickets

Next week (week of May 13th), the Central College team will be building some new homes in the community. It was a joy today to meet the families that we will be working with and get their story. Edina is a widow with a family of seven. Her and her family currently live in a rented room, sleeping on dirt floors. She was very thankful for coming and helping them. We are excited because as brothers and sisters in Christ, we are to walk with each other. They are investing in this as well, gathering wood, helping with labor, and supplying water and food to the workers. It will be a joy to see how God uses this project now and into the future. Stay tuned.
