Sponsor A Pig
The pigs are back! The project came to a halt following a disastrous succession of typhoons and local disease but, we are up and running again. A team from Berwick Church of Christ in Melbourne, Australia repaired the pig pens so with a new breed of pigs the project has been recommenced. To breed and raise a pig to selling age costs about $80. Once sold the profits go to the running of the school and the remainder reinvested into the program. So please sponsor a pig for $80

Farewell, Glenna Makela
Jerry & Glenna Makela are Dewayne Liebrandt’s step-dad and mom. After battling ovarian cancer, Glenna Makela passed away on February 13.
They meet Pongsak Watcharasampunkul and William Mora in July 2009, and after hearing about the difficulties in raising enough funds for their Bible College education, Jerry & Glenna generously donated the full amount required.
Before passing away, Glenna gave her approval for DMI to set up the “Glenna Makela Memorial Scholarship Fund”. It was her desire that through this Memorial Fund, many new deaf ministers would be trained to ensure that deaf people in many countries would have the opportunity to know the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
