Growing in the Grace and Knowledge of the Lord

Psalm 18 verse 2″The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”  Psalm 18 verse 19 “He brought me out into a broad place; he rescued me, because he delighted in me.”

Most of the children who come to Faith Children’s Village and call it home, come from heart-wrenching backgrounds.  As they are discipled, those who come to trust in Christ as their personal Lord and Savior can truly say “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer…”  It is beautiful to see these precious ones take refuge in the Lord.

Two such children are Alright and Brenda V.  They have called FCV home since 2009.  Both of their parents passed away when they were very young.  The above psalm, in it’s entirety, is one that Brenda clings to and cherishes.  This sibling pair has thrived at the Village.

Alright is in Grade 11 at Kitwe Boys Secondary School.  He begins his days early and returns late in the afternoon.  He is a dedicated student.  In his spare time, he has learned to play the xylophone, guitar and violin  Alright also finds great joy in singing at Church.

Brenda attends Kakolo Basic School nearby and is in Grade 9.  She values time on Saturdays when she attends teen Bible Study.

Both Alright and Brenda have made salvation decisions and are striving to follow Gods instructions for their lives.

We are so very thankful to all those who have made a lasting impact in their lives.  We eagerly anticipate what the Lord will do in and through Alright and Brenda.

Faith Children’s Village – Amano Academy Students Excel

 

We are privileged at Faith Children’s Village to have our primary school on site to serve not only the young children of FCV, but also some of the children from the surrounding community.

Amano (Wisdom) Academy opened in 2013 and educates a total of 60 students in grades 1-7.  Forty-four of these either reside at FCV or have parents on staff.  Sixteen of our students are either orphaned or vulnerable and live in the surrounding village.  Although most of those who live in the village of Kakolo are impoverished, many are in dire situations.  We’ve taken time in chapel this year to encourage our students to have a heart for those who are most needy.   We challenge our older students to seek out and help the younger ones in our school family.  Those who excel academically are urged to tutor or read to those who struggle.  We desire for our students to focus less on themselves and more on serving others.

At the conclusion of each term we recognize those students who attained at average of 85% or better in all of their subjects.  In the government schools, students pass a given subject when they earn at least a 40%.  We aim higher.  We desire that our students excel and work hard.  God has blessed them with the opportunity to learn and grow and achieve.  At the end of Term 1, nearly half of our students were recognized and awarded for having an average of 85% or better.  We are so thankful for these children who work hard and understand the value of their education.  Congratulations to all!
