St. Vincent Preschool Project

My dear friend Maddie Keller and her husband EK have moved to St. Vincent to do ministry with WISE, and the Wurdemans.  Maddie is teaching at a preschool to connect with the community for Christ. 

The WISE PREPATORY PRESCHOOL would love to have you join and partner alongside this great ministry.

Brice and Amanda Wurdeman moved to St. Vincent with their three children in December 2011. They are missionaries on the island and the directors at Windward Islands School of Evangelism.
They have such great love and hearts for others. 

They have now started a preschool to reach more for Jesus.
Despite living the island life, some of these children come from poor homes. And some of these homes are without electricity and running water.

Your $25 monthly sponsorship, your love, and your prayers will help with many things each day including:
*Help pay a helper teacher. She is from St. Vincent and this is her very first job. It helps provide for her family.
*Help children receive education and to be able to learn and play with other children their age in a safe and loving environment.
*Help children hear a Bible story and hear about Jesus’s great love for them.
*Help feed a snack to each child.
*Help pay for their school uniforms.
*Help pay for the fans and lights in the classroom.

Contact Me or Janna Conklin for more information. 
Janna Conklin is the mastermind with this project.  Her family has already sent Bibles to WISE. 
Join them and WISE in helping make a difference in the hearts of the people of St. Vincent.

Eden's Coming Home Video



Long in coming, but well worth it. We are so blessed to have gone through this journey to become a family of 3.
