Community Development Center

The Vision

Our vision is to create a space that brings Christ's hope, love, and care into a community desperately in need. As well as a place where college-age students are discipled, mentored, and trained in order to be sent back out into their community with the skills needed to bring foundational change.

overview at a glance

The Need

Less than 2% of the population is Christian
The uneducated make between $2-4 a day
Starting salaries for college graduates are between $300-400 a month
Corruption is experienced at every level of the government and law enforcement
The current government is beginning to put barriers in the way of Christian influence in the country.
43% of the population is 15-25 years old.

The Solution

These facts bring us to a clear conclusion; deep and lasting change is desperately needed. The next generation that will come into power is poised to make that change if they are invested in well. We believe the best way to help bring about this investment is by building a community training center that will become the heart of our community and a place where college-age students are discipled, mentored, and trained.

The Cost

We have total faith in God to provide in His time and His way and we are eager to see God glorified through the process of fundraising. After completing the first phase of the concept design with our engineering partners, the expected budget to build the community training center is between $400,000 - $450,000. When first seeing these numbers, it may feel like an incredibly difficult task. But in comparison to the God we serve, these numbers are miniscule. He can and will provide for the work He wants to see done.
