Plymouth World Missions Ministry Team

Picture
Through its World Missions Ministry Team, Plymouth supports three significant programs in the Middle East and Africa:
  • Lango School in Ethiopia, a program developed by the Mekane Yesus Church, to provide “kindergarten” classes for rural children whose parents could not afford the fees for such classes and often needed their children’s labor at home, thus delaying their education. Through the help of Bob and Nancy Sturtevant, who were in the area as Peace Corps Volunteers, Plymouth, and friends from several other countries, the school has now expanded to several grades and has a building of its own.
  • Rawdat El-Zuhur School in East Jerusalem, which was created in 1952 to serve impoverished Palestinian girls whose families had been dislocated following the creation of the State of Israel.  It is now a thriving co-ed school, serving over 200 children, both Muslim and Christian.
  • Masazane Soup Kitchen and Child Protection Project in Mbekweni Township near Capetown, South Africa, created in 2012 by six Gogos (grandmothers), members of the Rondebosch United Church in Capetown, and Plymouth member, Marilyn Votaw.  Concerned that education was the way out of poverty – but that hungry children can’t learn well – the program provides a nutritious meal for up to 500 children a day. The program also serves as a community resource, providing access to medical care and other life-saving support, including foster care in the homes of participating Gogos, for the most vulnerable of these children, some of whom were orphaned by AIDS.

Total shared with World Missions ministries: $1011.50
