FLC students thank donors for supporting their education |
THANK YOU
The re-opening of Faith Learning Center has caused
great rejoicing among the children of Boma. Once again life has returned to the
school; children joyfully play, and participate in both in- and out-door
learning activities. In the past fortnight, the school enrollment has
dramatically grown from 28 on the first day to 120 last Friday.
Vincent reports from Boma that the local chiefs made a visit to SEA Partners'
facilities and met with the staff to, on the community’s behalf and on their own
behalf, convey their sincere gratitude to the donors for the impact they are
helping make possible toward the restoration of their lives from the damages
caused by recent violent conflicts in their country

Fencing work is going on to restore the staff compound and land preparation for this season’s planting is also in progress.
After ten months of closure, Faith Learning Center re-opened
on March 17, 2014 becoming the first and the only school to do so in the whole of
Boma. In early May 2013 the Yau Yau Rebellion made the situation in Boma so
insecure that SEA Partners, like all other NGOs, had to temporarily cease
operations. Every member of the Boma community, who has survived the hardships of the past ten months, are seeing the restoration
process begin. Our partners are making this possible and we are literally filled with a
deep sense of gratitude that is too difficult to accurately express in
words.

I ,also, must thank you
for extending your love and generosity toward the Boma community in their hour
of need, and may God exceedingly bless you all in every aspect of your lives
even as you continue to serve Him.
HENRY OKUMU
African Director,
SEA Partners.
