A.R.M. Needs Your Help to Finish School Building

School Building Construction Update

We're SO close! Can you help us?

Brothers and Sisters in Christ our team in Gambella is in a crucial time of fundraising for the latest A.R.M. School Building Construction Fund this year, and have raised altogether more than $30,000 thanks to our partners! We are grateful and could not have gotten this far without YOU, our donors.


These kids deserve a head start in life but many of them struggle each day with the need for the basic, essentials like food, water, clothing however that is what God almighty has tasked us at A.R.M. to help them with. We are dear brothers and sisters in Christ, dedicated to these precious little children. The time is now to come alongside us as we're in the middle of the second phase of the school building project to support us! DONATE HERE


As most of you know the A.R.M. Center currently has over 1,000+ orphaned children being guided and taught every day in the current school program by credentialed teaching staff. Helping them is something you can do to change the course of their lives!


Last month our construction team began building out the rafters and metal for the roof.


Now, in the current phase of the School Building Project, we are tasked with another lofty goal and believe God will help us raise $40,000+ to finish out the school classrooms (Doors and Windows/interior).


We trust that you will consider becoming a partner with A.R.M. and appreciate your prayers and support during this crucial time. If you have any questions, please let us know.

 

Prayerfully,

 

Rev. Michael Gatkek, Founder & the A.R.M. Board of Directors

This year, the mission team of A.R.M. had the privilege to travel to Gambella Ethiopia to provided different services to the vulnerable orphans. We had seven people on our mission team who went to Gambella, Ethiopia who all were extremely talented with very different gifts and knowledge to provide to the orphans and widows during the two weeks in early 2023.

We are compelled to ask because of a temporary emergency issue unfolding in South Sudan. Many of us may not fully understand the needs of South Sudanese society right now. These photos below will give you the recent disaster activities and flood conditions those of our family located in the ARM Center. We are the voice for people like these South Sudanese affected by the flood and want to call on you, our ministry to be the hands and feet to help us. As I looked at the pictures, I have learned that there were many more children affected by this disaster. I am now appealing to you brothers and sisters to extend your hand or any help you can to respond to the current flood situation that has affected our Christian brothers and sisters in South Sudan. Whatever someone can contribute will help change the life of each family. Click on the GIVE link to give securely through PayPal using whatever credit or debit card you have. You can also write a check to African Relief Ministries and mail it to P.O. Box 137333, Fort Worth, Texas 76136. The way we want to respond as a ministry is to provide the following: Sleeping nets Blankets and sheets Cooking utensils Emergency funds
