Oshikuku

Just before the Board meeting got underway I travelled about 700kms to the north with the seven STLD students who were due to particpate in the prgramme for the official opening of the Ministry Centre that Christ's Hope has established in Oshikuku..

This was my first visit to the north. There is a difference between the north of Namibia and where we live in the central areas..

This is us stopping for breakfast at a service station in Otavi.. Yes it was rather cold..

On arrival at the ARK in Oshikuku we were called in to help with the cleaning and preparation of the ark for the official opening that would take place the following day..
The Ark (Oshikuku).. Greeted by many children who come to the centre and who were there for a club meeting with a team of Dutch young people who were in Namibia on a missions visit.. It was great that they would also be in Namibia for the opening of this facility, especially since Christ's Hope Netherlands have been instrumental in the construction, funding and establishment of this particular ministry Centre..


STLD students singing at the opening ceremony.. Guests under the tent of meeting!

It was a joyful day and of tremendous encouragement was the presence of government and community leaders who all attended as an indication of their support for this ministry centre which we are fully convinced will make a significant positive impact in this community.

Please pray for our people in Oshikuku as they reach out to the community and offer care and love to the children...
