How the Lord blesses us

Despite the theft of one of our school buses, we were able to trade the other one in for a newer and bigger bus.

Praise the Lord that even though things may seem bad, He has a perfect plan. Our new bus is pictured below.

A word from our principal

As our year winds to a close, I am having to remind myself of Romans 8:28. In trying times we forget that all things refers to the good and the bad; and that our focus should never shift from the love we have from our Father and the calling He has placed on each of our lives.

One of the school buses that we were blessed with was stolen whilst the children were on excursion a few weeks back. We praise the Lord for the safety and assistance of brethren who loaned us a vehicle to get the children home safely. We are still waiting for insurance to pay out so please be praying with us in this regard.

South Africa is going through economic recession and the school is feeling the crunch as many parents are not paying their school fees. Please pray for their finances and that they will budget to allow them to meet their agreements. Please also be praying for the staff and children who write end of year examinations.

Psalm 33:20-22
