Get Faith
Micah 6:8 "He has shown you, O (people) , what is good: and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God." The study writer here speaks of her husband going into the ministry and then doubting he is good enough for the job. Who hasn't thought about that? When God calls, he knows that you are capable, trust his judgement and give it your best! Listen!
On this day
2001 - I cleaned the garage after church. (The garage is always a mess after Christmas). Nicole had indoor soccer probably at Fraser. Jan came over later for dinner because we celebrated Mom's birthday, which was on the 9th. Wow Mom would have been 79 that year. Seems like yesterday and forever at the same time.
1782 - The Bank of North America opened in Philadelphia. It was the first commercial bank in the United States. Is this the current Bank of America? They own me lock stock and barrell.
Wad Madani Sudan
The earliest educational system of Sudan was established by the British during the first half of the 20th century. Its primary function was to provide a limited number of qualified professionals for the colonial administration. Schools were mainly located to Khartoum. In addition, independent Christian missionaries established schools across the south, but quality of the instruction was poor.
With the independence of 1956, only few reforms were launched in the educational sector. Since 1962, schools in the civil war ridden southern provinces have been operated by local authorities. There is no common program for education here, and resources are limited.Through the 1970's reforms to make education effectively compulsory were launched, and with improved focus on technical and vocational education. Until then, education had focused training for an eventual university degree, but only a small part of all pupils got that far.Still, through the 1980's the school system failed to produce enough qualified candidates at both lower and higher levels. Technical studies continued to have a low status among pupils, usually considered a second best option.A persistent problem to the Sudanese educational system was the loss of qualified teachers, who often chose other forms of work or took work in foreign countries.Special programs to promote education among girls have been carried out, but often facing the opposition from traditional ideas. Sudan has its own women's university, which has been quite successful.A major reform to the educational system was launched in 1990, when Islam became a central part of all subjects; military service became a requirement to be admitted into university; Arabic was decreed the new language of instruction in universities, replacing English. The reforms met strong opposition, and many of the teaching staff at universities were dismissed.The size of expenditure on education compared to GDP is presently highly uncertain, the last good estimate goes back to 1991, when 6.0% was used. Should this be the figure today, it would correspond to $130 per capita, placing Sudan among the countries spending the least money on its education. Interesting.Orphanage
Because of the long lasting war (25 years), and the poverty and sickness, tens of thousands of refugees have fled to South Sudan for various reasons. They have fled to escape war, religious persecutions (because the North is predominantly Muslim), leaving thousands of orphans everywhere. These helpless children wander from place to place, they need a safe place of refugee for food, shelter and the love of Jesus Christ.
While Deng and David were in South Sudan they were able to meet with the governor and key officials who donated 50 acres of land, in Gambela, for an orphanage, and 150 acres in Mattar. Since Gambela has water, government and an established community, we felt that starting the first orphanage in Gambela would be most appropriate. At a later date, we may be able to open another orphanage in Mattar. But that would include the need for water wells, more buildings, and more safety precautions.
We need $36,000 to finish the building for the orphanage. The goal is to have this open by the beginning of 2015. We are also in communication with the leaders in South Sudan to establish relationships for families who may want to adopt children in need. Would you please consider what God would lay on your heart to either pray, volunteer or donate.
Please contact us, if you would be interested in volunteering, going on a trip, or considering adopting one of these precious children.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday Lisa! and Arnie!
Let's take a cruise!
