Graduation 2015

These are the two students who graduated from Basico, what is the equivalent of Middle School and are continuing their education in Diversificado, High School. It is very exciting and I am so proud of the hard work. This is all thanks to Catonsville United Methodist Church, whose support of these students in the two and three years they have had sponsorships have made this possible! You all should be proud as well!

 Samuel, sponsored by Tim and Linda Pyle and the CUMC evening service.

Melisa, sponsored by the CUMC bible study group.

They will both be registering in High Schools in Antigua, and I am certain God has plans for the next for years of these students. Pray that they will continue in their education but also continue to know who the Lord is in their lives.

New Teachers, New Classes

It is a privilege to have Ana and Jesica as the new teachers at Steps of Hope! Ana has added a new tutoring class. Jesica as also added a tutoring class and weekend English classes for those who cannot study during the weekday. She has also been added full-time to help in the office, and is starting her own side program called Without Borders to work with the elderly in the community. I feel very blessed that God has provided these two women to be part of the project!
