Early last year we announced the start of a large project to provide safety and security for the orphans at Congo for Christ. The need for security and protection for the children is now greater than ever. The brick portion of the wall is well underway and they have completed two-thirds of the 605 meters needed.
The brick portion of the wall is well underway and they have completed two-thirds of the 605 meters needed.
The plan is to complete the bottom brick portion all the way around the property first, then add the metal poles which will complete the wall. Even before the metal poles are added the brick portion is a tremendous help in keeping out stray animals and intruders. The wall will provide protection not only for the orphanage but also the nearly 300 students at Mango Tree School.

The total estimate for the wall is $80,000 and we have received about $36,000 of this amount. To complete the brick portion of the wall we still need $20,000. Every $40 gift buys the bricks for one linear foot of the wall. Every gift, large or small, for this project will help us reach the goal of a more secure, safe campus for our children in Congo.
