Exciting news: The Christian School of Bocachica opens this month!


We have exciting news to share with you from Bocachica, Colombia. It's hard to believe this time last year, Nate and a team from the States were breaking
ground on the school. Now they have gone from breaking ground to having four classrooms and a set of bathrooms complete. The most exciting news is that on January 28th, the school will open and operate at their permanent location.

When the school opens on the 28th they will have four grades. Preschool, Kindergarten, first, and second grade.  
Here is the look at the kids who just graduated from Kindergarten.

Nate and I have been asked by the school and the local church on the island to attend the dedication of the school in February. We are excited to be part of this and also to see first hand the progress that has been made.
We can't wait to share with you photos and testimonies of all the good things that are taking place on the island.

Thank you all for your prayers for the school. It is a blessing know the kids are going to receive a quality education and hear the Word of the Lord daily.
Please continue to pray as they are in the final days of cleaning up and organizing things for the school to open on the 28th.

Blessings,
The Ariels
