First day of exams, first day in the new building

Mollika doesn't seem to be sweating over her exam, perhaps it is because she enjoys the new facilities we have.
We are very thankful to both God, and all the people He used to make this building possible. While we start using the facilities, the workers weed out the little flaws and oversights that inevitably show up once you start using such a big building.
Thank you for your prayers.

Concert

Dhaka Children's Chorus and Gemma Snowdon School of Dance performed at the American International School in Dhaka to raise funds for a music hall at LAMB School.
LAMB School wishes to thank all the children, musicians and especially Gemma Snowdon and Dawne Warkentin for a fantastic performance and for considering us when designating proceeds from the concert.

Answered prayers

Thank you God, thank you all who prayed.
Today God showed us more of the picture of who will be teaching at LAMB School next year. As I wrote a few days ago, I felt we had a crisis. Now I feel God has shown us how He has met our needs for teachers for three out of six subjects. Praise God for His faithfulness and continue to pray about the need for someone to teach sciences in grade nine.

Also see the picture of a nearly completed new science building. We can not paint until after the rainy season because the plaster won’t be dry before then so there are only two more things to be done in the picture here. There are a couple of more things on the ground and the top floors too, but it is getting very close to being finished.

God provides

In the past God has been faithful in providing for our needs at the school. Please pray with us about the need for teachers to teach grades nine from August this year.

We have just had one teacher resign. Before that it felt like a challenge to fill the teacher needs for our O Level classes; now, to be honest, it feels like a crisis.

Please pray for the children who are going into grade nine, that their needs will be met; then pray that He will send us the teachers we need.

Give thanks for the teachers we have, and for those preparing to come; one from England and one from the US we interview potential teachers on 29 May 2008 here at LAMB.

In the past God has always provided for the needs of our students and I am confident He will continue to do so in the future.

The last brick

Mofizul laid the last brick today. He is the man behind Moni in the picture. Moni and her two colleagues, Mary and Bashonti are the ones who have carried the bricks, cement and sand for every part of the construction. On only a few occasions, such as when each floor and the roof were poured, have others helped out.
