School visit

[Monrovia, Liberia]
The Logos Hope is currently sailing across the Atlantic, in the Direction of Freetown, capital of Sierra Leone. In two month, she will be in Monrovia. Time flies! What will be the focus in these four ports of West Africa: Freetown (Sierra Leone), Tema & Takoradi (Ghana) and Monrovia, Liberia?
The Logos Hope will work alongside local organisations and churches to help bring restoration in this part of the world affected by past civil wars. In Monrovia, the educational system is being built up again, but the needs are still very obvious. Yesterday, I spent the whole day visiting schools to assess what are their needs in terms of Literature, and school material. Textbooks are needed everywhere, but some schools don’t even have enough chairs and benches or a proper black board to teach the children.
The Logos Hope will make book donation and work on some practical project. Small medical teams will also work alongside the hospitals to bring extra hands during the visits. To know more about this West Africa visit and support the project, visit the website: www.gbaships.org
