APRIL 2024 NARRATIVE REPORT
INTRODUCTION
We always give glory and honour to God who gives us the ability and zeal to advance the cause of His kingdom. We are always grateful when we look back in the month and see the hand of God in a number of areas. To Him, we remain grateful. This report gives a glimpse to some of the issues that transpired in the month in academics, infrastructure and projects. Please find these, hereunder;

2. APRIL PARALLEL CLASSES
Parallel classes proceeded well in April at Nhowe and Gweru respectively. The following subjects were done at Nhowe; Sign Language, Life of Christ, Scheme of Redemption and Personal Work. The following were done at Gweru; Church Growth, Advanced Homiletics, Greek, Church Leadership and Pastoral Epistles. Some of these are still ongoing.
3. PROJECTS
In April, the school planted about 900 cabbages and 300 butternuts. The maize crop planted at the end of March is doing well. These projects remain critical in the provision of life survival skills to students including better nutrition and an extra dollar to the school.
4. CLASSROOM BLOCK
The anticipated foundation to the classroom block began to be worked on the 10th of April using the available funds. To date, the following have been done; setting out, trenching, clearance of vegetation, footing and construction of the box. A further $29 000 is needed to complete the structure beyond this foundation level. Any assistance is highly welcome.
CONCLUSION
We thank God for the development we keep witnessing at BVBIZ, both within the students and infrastructural development. Such a progress would not have been possible without the sacrifices you have been making towards the school. We remain grateful for your spiritual, moral, material and financial support. To God be the glory!
