Building taking shape

A lot of hard work has gone into creating a second floor and roof for this building to house the senior secondary school pupils of our growing New Era Schools in Freetown, Sierra Leone. The picture gives a good idea of where we were in September 2016.  There was a bit to go as doors and windows needed to be fixed. In addition to funding the building work we are also committed to paying most of the teachers, until the Government takes over their funding. They have been promising this for some time. Alpha Kargbo, our Headteacher, and leader of the NGO we partner with, has been to the Ministry of Education  with all the paperwork they have asked for. At present (Jan 2017) we are still waiting for any further money.

Currently we are running short on regular funds.. We have been sustained in the past by a number of unexpected generous gifts as the Lord has continued to bless this work. We are the only Christian School in the area and are a witness to the community. If you would like to assist the work at any time any gifts should be sent by bank transfer (the easiest way) to Account name: Links International Projects

They collect gift aid on our behalf and I can arrange this if you let me know. Prayers would be appreciated for the school as the country continues to recover from the dire effects of the recent Ebola Outbreak.
