Education Enrichment and
Literacy Development
Library and Educational Enrichment Centre
A place where children and teens from the community can access a large selection of learning toys and puzzles and participate in free group tutoring sessions 5 days a week. Soon classes will be offered for adults who struggled in the past. A place where library members, pastors and others from the community can borrow books for personal enjoyment, study, proclamation of the Gospel and research. A safe and clean environment where children can study independently or with friends before and/or after school. A place where Christian literature promotes character,faith in Jesus and values that will shape learners for the future.
Foundational Learning
Teaching basic literacy to both children and adults (through this program some adult members of society have learned to write their names for the first time ever!) Beginners learn basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills allowing them to thrive in school.
Opportunities to Expand Learning
Learners of all ages have access to games, puzzles, building blocks, coloring and
learning pages and balls of all kinds to encourage learning and promote fitness
Vocational Training
Tailoring
Women and men of the communities are taught basic sewing skills enabling them to develop income-generating opportunities. They also make necklaces and
fashion accessories using various damaged fabrics, paper, scrap material,
recycled plastics, and bottle tops under the RecycloCraftz program.
Bakery and Confectionaries
They are also taught baking and other basic culinary skills which they can later
turn into enterprises.
Nutrition
We have a large variety of vegetable growing in the gardens at the ChelstonMinistry Center. Many benefit from the harvest. We plan to duplicate and expand the gardens at the KamangaMinistry Center. Fruit trees will be planted as well. Teaching and training workshops to improve personal and family nutrition
Medical Assistance
Medical assistance is a constant need and we provide care and assistance for
people that would otherwise go without. Some have been helped with glasses
others with an artificial limb and crutches, while one woman and her daughter
needed dental care in conjunction with Asthma. Each action goes a long way to change someone`s life
Secure Housing
We help to provide secure housing as the need arises so people can have a safe
and secure place to lay their head at night. When a family`s house caught fire
and was razed to the ground or when a widow`s property was grabbed after the
death of her husband Global 8235 stepped to help.
Financial Literacy
We teach Financial Literacy and Money Management skills with special emphasis
on savings and budgeting. Many in our targeted communities are empowered and develop income generating ventures
Discipleship
At Global8235 we believe that without making an eternal difference, our work is in vain. Discipleship may take the form of women`s Bible study, sports day
evangelism, aiding a pastor going to the rural areas to share the Jesus Film,preach and baptize new believers, and/or distributing Bibles in prisons or simply
helping young men and women in seminary furthering their knowledge in Biblical studies. Everyday at the Learning Center children hear about the transforming power of Jesus. It’s ALL discipleship.
