Amazing Progress!!
Amazing Progress!! The buildings have windows. The classrooms have desks. The dormitory has bed frames. The first contingent of students will soon occupy the semi-finished buildings! There is still loads of work to do and basic essentials to fund: doors, text books, science equipment, the entire muddy grounds, fixtures, food, mattresses and so much more, but St. Antoine school is becoming a reality! THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR DONORS for continuing to make this happen!
