Project Update
eMi team is finishing the report and drawings. The ministry continues to meet with political leaders to lay the groundwork for the school development.

Project Scope
Rev Cyle Davis and his wife Helen, gospel workers to Chile for over 50 years, helped plant the seeds for Ministries of Love. On learning that the Chilean government was favorable to not only the establishment of Christian schools, but would contribute a substantial monthly support for the operation of them, MOL seized the opportunity to establish "public" Christian schools. These Christian schools operate today under the administration of the Bethel Christian School Foundation.

In working with two struggling evangelical congregations in the isolated and sparsely populated area of Patagonia (Chile), they became aware of the desperate need for a high school to serve the students of this area. Because of the difficult climatic, geographic, and economic conditions of this region, the task will not be easy, but Ministries of Love and its partners have committed to the task of establishing this work.

To that end, eMi has also committed to the task with them! This is an incredible opportunity to get in on the ground floor – literally and physically – of the design of this high school. We’ll need a team to develop a unique design to respond to the physical environment and the goals of the ministry. Join us as we venture to the far end of the South American continent!
