Converting storage room into a school house

We have been looking for our own place to have our school project since before the beginning of the school year but until this point we have not found a place. That was until a few weeks ago when we looked out the window of the Petelea building and saw a small storage room. The storage room was first used to store supplies for the construction team. Since the building has been completed the storage room has not been used for anything. While the building we are currently using is a blessing for our project with the arrival of winter we face a problem. Our problem is that the building takes a few hours to warm up because of its size and the temperature outside. We need to come to the building every morning by 5:30am to start a fire for our heating system and even like this it is cold when the kids come at 7:15am. During this waiting time we are sitting in -8 temperatures which is unbearable. In converting this storage room into a school house a lot can change for us as teachers and for our kids when they arrive each morning to the school house.

Our hope is to raise 850 euro or $1,000 to convert this weather beaten storage room into a school house. While it will be small it will be perfect for our morning preparations for our kids. Every morning our kids come to us to change into clean school clothes that we have for them as well as wash and eat breakfast before school.




We need your prayers and support to make this transformation possible. If you would like to be a part in helping us convert this storage room into our school house we would greatly appreciate it.
