Leveling the Land

Upper level where Community Ministry Center will stand

Work has begun in earnest on levelling the land in preparation for the construction of a Community Ministry Center in the village of Muyange. Thanks to a donation from the St. John Vineyard we hope to complete the building around Christmas time. The local congregation are donating materials and labour to the project. We are excited to be moving ahead with developing this land that we feel very blessed to be able to further God's Kingdom work in Rwanda.

Ernest, Val and GAKO trainer on a tour of the Demonstration Garden

Ernest was very excited to start his week-long training at the Organic Farm Training Center in Kabuga, about 20 minutes drive outside Kigali. The center is called GAKO and they offer regular training sessions to groups from our region. The center has become very busy lately especially since the Rwanda Government has wisely seen the benefit of the majority of the population providing for their own food needs through small scale farming.

The plan is for Ernest to pass on his newly acquired skills to others in our village. In the near future we intend to begin our own Demonstration Kitchen Garden on part of the church land.
