Mendonsa Family Ministry House
Mendonsa Family Ministry House
A match of $38,500 (50%) has been offered towards the main house construction cost of $77,000
In fall 2017, Bob and Julie Mendonsa became empty nesters when Will joined Emily in the US for college. This means they no longer have students attending Rift Valley Academy and thus they can move closer to their daily ministry at Naomi's Village and Cornerstone Preparatory Academy.
Two years ago, Naomi's Village purchased a 1/8-acre plot of land just down the road from its main property, for the purpose of building a ministry house.
The total cost of this house is estimated at $35/sq. ft = $77,000 + $8,000 estimated for a perimeter wall = $85,000 total.
**A match of $38,500 (50%) has been offered towards the main house construction cost of $77,000. This means that every dollar donated between now and Jan 1, 2019 will be matched up to that amount!
Please give today to help the Mendonsas move closer to their beloved kids at Naomi's Village, where they will be free to spend more hours with them in the evening and on weekends.

In Memoriam: Janet Ross Ebey
In Memoriam: Janet Ross Ebey
Mother of Scott, Ryan, Chad, Shawn, Richard, and Sharon. Lifetime Educator
Donation in memory of Janet Ross Ebey
Janet spent her entire adult life serving others. She loved children, and from an early age knew she was called to be an educator. Over her 42 years as a schoolteacher, she impacted hundreds, if not thousands of lives. She shared the love of Christ each and every day she showed up in the classroom. After her “retirement” from the classroom, she almost immediately returned to the school to continue helping students achieve their very best. Until the very end of her life, even as she battled leukemia, she found a way to love children. She especially loved caring for students who might have otherwise struggled, and saw them achieve their very best in response to her tender love and care. One of her greatest legacies is the countless adults who now look back and see that the trajectory of their lives changed when they walked into Mrs. Ebey’s classroom.
Janet was never able to physically visit Cornerstone Preparatory Academy, but she loved the work that was being done there. She was so excited to know that children who would otherwise be without an education were able to not only attend school, but were being shown the love of Jesus Christ as they learned. Her family is thankful to know that her legacy will continue on as children are able to go to school because of your generosity in her name.
