Dedication of Ebenezer's New Addition

I have had the privilege to talk with Mariella Provost, 87, from Black Mountain. She and her husband were missionaries in Korea and started a school there, some 50 years ago, Moon Wha School. Mr. Kim, from Korea, who attended Moon Wha School just visited Ebenezer School in Malawi. Due to the efforts of the Korean people the addition to Ebenezer School was built. The following is information I received from Mariella about the recent dedication. Hands around the world, must be incredible for the Provost family to see how their vision has grown and reached out to others. To God be the Glory, great works have been done!!!! Thanks Mariella.

Mr. Hyung Sup Kim visited Ebenezer
From Moon Wha School in Korea
On June 21st, Mr. Kim, Hyung Sup, Chairman of Moon Wha Board in Gyeongju went to Nkhoma, Malawi. A dedication service was held for the Raymond Provost Hall. This two-classroom building was built with funds raised by the alumni, faculty and friends of Moon Wha Jr.& Sr. High School in Gyeongju, Korea. Raymond Provost was the first principal of Moon Wha School which was started 50 years ago!! Mr. Kim presented a plaque that will be mounted on the building.
At the dedication service there were people from the Synod Office, teachers, students and friends—people from Asia, Europe, U.S.A. and Africa. What an international gathering that was!!
Since Mr. Kim does not speak English, they were very fortunate to have a Korean missionary, Ms. Seon-Hee Lee, working at the Synod Office who interpreted for him.
You as friends in the States have helped to fill the inside of the building with furniture, a copy machine, text books and supplies. In addition we are also gathering scholarships for the children. What a joy to see what God is doing to build this Christian School in Nkhoma. In September the school will start its 4th year. Then there will be a Preschool (4 year old class), Kindergarten, 1st Grade and a new 2nd grade. The first two-classroom building was made possible by a church in Gastonia, North Carolina and some playground equipment was given by friends overseas in Holland. Now I am thrilled that friends in Korea are helping.
Your friend in Christ,

Mariella Provost
