AGRICILTURE FIELD TRIP
On the 25th of September, our students of the Bear Valley Bible Institute Liberia was taken out on a one day life changing agriculture field trip by their agriculture instructor and some of the staffs to see the farm and set up of Liberia International Christian College (LICC). When they returned, they were made to write a report individually on their field trip experiences and what they wrote melts my heart and I am so thankful for allowing them to go on that trip and to have the experiences they wrote about. At LICC agriculture department, they are seriously involved into animals husbandry and crops productions on a little larger skill.
From the reports written by our students, many of them had not seen live animals before. They were privileged to be taken around the farm by the farm manager of that college. He showed them them all the animals they have there with explanations on how to keep the animals. Our students had the opportunities to have seen animals like the monkeys, snakes, rabbits, pigs, different kind of chickens, different kind of birds, turkeys, crocodiles, different kind of goats, geese, and many more. They were also taken to seen different fish pools and had a lecture on how to create a fish pool and a pig pan. They were also taken to the crops farms and plantations to see how many different crops are planted and maintained. They also saw the Bee farm and were taken through the process of Bee keeping for the honey. Their field trip ended with a running race among them and student Winston Carrick won the race and was given a bottle full of honey. This was truly a life changing experience for our preacher students and I am so happy for them. Meanwhile, they have started practicalizing some of the things they learned from the field trip in the school.
CONCLUSION:
We are truly grateful to everyone who supports the work of the Bible school here in Liberia. We are sincerely thankful for every dollar you continued to sacrifice for the sake of Christ in Ganta Liberia. Thank you very much.
Your brother and co-worker in the Lord
