Trip to Nigeria

Bernie Pennings left for Nigeria two weeks ago. His flight home via Amsterdam has been delayed due to the volcano in Iceland.

Please pray for a safe and timely trip home and for continued blessing on his monitoring trip as he visits with Daniel Pever, the director of Faith And Freedom Ministies, which oversees Word & Deed sponsored projects in Nigeria. Word & Deed sponsors two Christian Schools in Nigeria with well over a 1,800 children in total. Both schools are currently having 4 classrooms added at a cost of $89,000 (total). Operating costs with the exception of furniture are covered by student fees paid by parents. Directly below are some pictures taken in the last two weeks.

The schools have gained a reputation for high moral and academic standards leading to an explosion in enrollment.
