"We are Christ's Ambassadors" 2 Corinthians 5:20 |
During
a seventeen-day period from June 18th to July 7th Team Ghana members provided
volunteer labour in the construction of a 70ft. long x 30ft. wide x 20ft. high
concrete block food security building. They also committed themselves to providing
the necessary funds to cover the cost of all construction materials as well
as some tools and equipment which they left with the people. Their hope in building
this facility was to "help break the cycle of starvation"
in the Deg area of N.W. Ghana.
Other team members were engaged in teaching English to children attending village schools. Since English is the language of instruction in the schools of Ghana the children from these remote villages face a great disadvantage without a basic knowledge of English. Even though their time there was short they were able to make a significant impact on these young lives.
