Site where pavilion will be built.
A new project was added to the GapFill.org website that I wanted to share with you. The project will help build a pavilion in Liberia at the Mission of Hope School. Liberia is one of the most impoverished nations in the world. The Liberian education system is still emerging from a prolonged and brutally destructive period of civil unrest. For over 3 years, the Zion Hill Baptist Church of Atlanta Georgia continues to sponsor a full, healthy meal program at the Mission of Hope School in Liberia. The children are fed breakfast and lunch five days a week and even during the summer breaks. The meals continue to make a great impact and they see improvement in grades, health, behavior and attention span.
Their current challenge is the lack of a cafeteria or large assembly facility on the campus. As a result, the students eat outside on the ground under the trees or stand while eating in rainy season and dry season. Since July 2021, it was decided to embark upon the construction of a Pavilion that could be used as a multi-purpose facility for eating, general assembly and meetings.
GapFill.org has partnered with International Christian Fellowship Ministries of Atlanta to help in the construction. Rev. Maryalice Omokeye Moses, who is overseeing this project, is currently at the Mission of Hope School in Liberia to get the project started before the rainy season in May begins. The construction cost of the Pavilion is $25,000. $7,000 has been raised already with an additional need of $18,000 remaining.
Please review the various types of material that is needing to be purchased. From bags of cement ($10 per bag) to truck loads of bricks ($1,000 per truck load) and lots of items in between. No gift is too small (or large 😊)
Thank you again for your consideration in this worthwhile project need.
We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly mentioning you in our prayers.
