News from Burundi!!
Over twelve years ago God lead a group from JFM to a remote area located in the bush of Burundi Africa. This place is now what we all know as Burenza. When the team arrived all that time ago there was one small building that serviced as the district office. Fast forward twelve years and this building has served as the launchpad for what’s now a sub-Saharan oasis of hope to the people of Burenza. But as you may have guessed the years and all the various uses have taken a toll and with the addition of the new maternity ward (soon to open) there is once again a need for this building as a ladies staff house.
In December along with our partners in Burundi, we asked the body of JFM for support to raise up this building and give it a new lease on life. Not only did you help meet the need but JFM more than doubled what was asked for. Because of this, we have been able to complete all the asked renovations and we are now able to add a modern bathroom and shower area to the house.
It’s commonly said God doesn’t call the equipped but equips the called and JFM you responded to that call. Please stay tuned over the next two months as we’ll be rolling out additional Burundi-related information, updates, and a potential upcoming mission trip.
