SENEGAL: Pray for the women in Senegal. Specifically, the women in the Baptiste Church, that they will be open to serving alongside our team in Ndiandiane. We lift up Awa, the woman that works with the children in the villages. We lift up Jaqueline, pastor Saliou's wife, that she is prospering in her new adventure of operating a restaurant and Catherine, pastor Kwashie's wife, who has adopted a child from our village. Eagle Wings Academy Eagle Wings Academy is beginning its fifth year of operation this September 4th. We are looking for individuals who would be willing to commit to volunteering either one 1/2 day or a whole day each week. This regular commitment would allow for the staff to plan specifically knowing that there will be extra help on a particular day. If you are interested, please call the school office at 396-0024 to request a volunteer application. A background check and references will be required. There is also a need for help with some special projects (e.g. cutting; sorting; assembling; etc.) - and some of this work can be done at home and returned when completed. If available, call the above number so that we can connect with you. |
