Ground Breaking


It has finally begun!
After months of planning, waiting, and paperwork the ground was finally broken and work started this morning at the 1261 square metre site of the House of Joshua project - constructing a home for abandoned and orphaned boys.

The Board of Directors and some local Pastors gathered together at 8.30am to pray and bless the ministry, in the shade of an adjacent tree. It was a moving time of dedicating the work and prayer for the 'Joshua Generation' of young people that will be reached and changed through this special home.

The first phase is to construct the perimeter fence and lay the foundations for the main back wall before infilling the house area to raise it by 1 meter to prevent flooding.

It is expected to take a number of weeks to complete with the hope that work will not be stalled by the torrential downpours of the fast approaching rainy season.
