Wonderful News from BibleLands
We received wonderful news form Ms. Morag Gillies, Partnerships
Coordinator of BibleLands, that the Partnership Committee in its May 10,
2011 meeting, decided to award our school a grant of GBP 20,625.00 to
fund the renovations and repairs for the girls boarding house. The girls
boarding house has very serious damp and water leakage problems that
makes it very unhealthy for our girls, especially in winter. During the
last
visit of BibleLands
trustees and staff to JLSS on Tuesday 2 November 2010, Mr. Douglas
Calander who is a civil engineer, kindly inspected the girls boarding
house and sent us a detailed report of all the works that must be
conducted on the building to correct the damp situation. The Maintenance
Department in JLSS received offers for the works and estimated the total
cost of the project. BibleLands kindly decided to provide us with the
grant that will cover the whole project. We will execute this project
this summer.
BibleLands also sent us and additional grant of GBP 500.00 for buying
new books for our library.
We express our sincere gratitude to BibleLands, its trustees, staff, and
supporters, for their wonderful support. BibleLands has been a true and
dedicated partner that accompanied our school in every development, and
allowed us to make a huge difference in the care we provide to
underprivileged children. We praise God for this truly Christian
partnership that is transforming life in our school.
