📣 Dormitory Update: The Work Has Begun!
We’re thrilled to share that construction is officially underway on the Rural Pastors Institute Dormitory! After months of preparation, we poured the slab, raised the foundation walls, and are now working on the suspended slab. 🙌
Despite the challenges (including three broken-down trucks on Day One! 😅), we are moving forward by God’s grace and your faithful support.
📊 Current Fundraising Totals:
-
Phase Two Goal: $150,000
-
Raised So Far: $8,319.30
-
Total Raised for the Entire Dorm Project: $158,319.30 out of $400,000
We’re grateful for every prayer, gift, and encouraging word. This dormitory will provide a vital place of rest and learning for pastors who travel long distances to be trained and equipped.
👉 Please keep praying with us as construction continues—and share this update to help us reach more people who want to be part of something lasting.
