Hallo J
The New
Year is here and it is with expectation that we started the year at
Olievenhoutbosch Christian School with 170 children and 18 staff members. We are excited to be the hands and feet of Jesus
and to have a part in building His kingdom in Olievenhoutbosch this year. Thank you for your contribution to the school
– anything from a donation to a prayer – which is what supports us every
day. Herewith our thank you’s and prayer
requests for January:
Our thank you’s to Jesus:
·
Thank you for every teacher, volunteer and child
who are safely back after die December holiday.
·
Thank you to SPAR Hennopsview who donated
stationery to the school for the New Year.
·
Thank you for the tinned food donation from the
kids from Halfway House Primary which ensured that we were able to start
handing out food parcels again for the struggling families.
·
Thank you to our new volunteer, Rose, who started
with music lessons for the Gr. 2 kids on a Monday afternoon. The money which was collected during the
concert at Midrand Presbytarian Church last year were used to buy recorders and
music stands for the kids.
·
As a request from our parents, we also started
with Afrikaans lessons for the Gr. 4 kids this year. What an exciting new opportunity!
Prayer requests:
·
Please pray for the improvements we want to focus
on this year at the school: a proper
sports field with netball poles and soccer nets, the upgrading of some of our
classrooms and more advanced computer classes for our kids.
·
Please pray that the Lord will provide for our
daily needs at school, e.g. food, stationery and electricity.
·
Please still pray for the safety and protection of
the teachers and learners at school every day.
