There are 2 new Gap teachers at Londua. One teaches at Londua and the other teaches at Lo-one. They are good kids and take part in college life.
Londua Training College was started by the Churches of Christ in the early 1950's. It has taught academic and vocational training to 100's of students. It has a reputation in Vanuatu for it's high level of education and technical training of it's students. To fit in with the Vanuatu Governments National Education Master Plan the Vanuatu Conference of Churches of Christ decided at their annual Conference in 2001 that Londua is to become a full Technical College.

Prayer points
Please pray that the advertisements for 2009 Londua staff will get spread far and wide and that God will challenge His people to fill these positions. Please pray that the advertising for student intake for 2009 will get to every prospective student and parent in Vanuatu over the next few months. There have been some radio interviews, advertising posters and we are looking at placing some radio advertising this week. 4 teachers are now receiving government salaries for this year only and we have applied for 4 teachers and 1 principal's salary for 2009. If this is approved it will give us some welcomed financial assistance for 2009 and also give us some credibility within the government system.

The last night
On our last night at Londua the Kingaroy "girls" made dinner for all the students. Baked beans and spaghetti. After this young Keith got the students to play a few games like ship, shark and shore. It was a great time enjoyed by both the young and old. We found out latter that some of the students had never had spaghetti before and were wondering what to do with it.
It is all about partnership
The ED of GMP was welcomed warmly by all. After his talks about the changing face of Global Mission Partners the welcome grew a lot warmer. There was confirmation that GMP are here to support Londua Technical College as it moves forward and transisitions into a full technical college. Both partners need to work together to achieve this task. The Tasmanian team were great as they got to work on every job they saw. One job taken on was painting the outside of the chapel. Here is the finished article. Makes a difference don't you think? There are a hundred more jobs to be done but one by one they will be completed.
Special Sunday
