What a joy it has been to see the Lord work in the opening of this school! The impossible was made possible before everyone's eyes! Baptist Mid-Missions' missionaries in the Central Afri– can Republic and the Chad have been praying for years for a high school for their own children. The thought of having to send their teen-agers to America during the crucial , growing-up years was becoming unbearable. Now, praise the Lord, the school has been launched and the second year is beginning. Last year a lovely Classroom Building was erected in answer to prayer. This year a duplex construction to be used as a girls' dormitory was completed just in time for school opening ... also in answer to prayer. It took a lot of work much volunteer help, and support from the Mission's many friends. Because the dormitory was needed immediately for the 20 students enroll ing for the Fall , it was completed before all the funds came in. Treasurer, Ben Kendrick sa}s they will sti11 need $8,000. A special thanksgiving prayer will go up when the Lord has met this need. 12 NOVEMBER, 1971 House Parents, Teachers and Students Teachers in the high school include Principal Eugen Townes, Polly Strong, as well as, short-termers Lynett. Davis and Larry Burek. The Townes keep the boys i their home and the Kendricks have charge of the girl dormitory. The school has needs that church groups could tak on as projects: classroom desks, teaching material , c dormitory furnishings . Mr. Kendrick reports that $2 50 will cover the cost of furnishings . A needed \.vater s~ster will cost $1,500. Slides of the Bangui Baptist High School are availabl from Baptist Mid-Missions, 4205 Chester Avenue, Clevt land, Ohio - 44103 . Gifts sent to the Mi ion, clearl designated for the Bangui Baptist High School Fund~ ar used 100% for the above needs. Because the high school is a reality, many n1i ionar parents are able to remain on their fields of service: an thousands of Africans are hearing the Go pel and heir taught the Word of God. The young people. too. ar able to minister as they go out for weeken<.I Chri tia, service assignments in and around Bangui. So1r1c of the, are already considering a lifetime of ·crvice to tl1e Lor in Africa. THE OHIO INDEPENDENT BAPllS
