The dream of ALCM was born years ago when I read an article how impoverished families in developing countries would let their children go to the city with a promise of being educated. But many of those promises were broken; and children were put on the streets to make money for their temporary guardians.
Years later, I met my wife, who was born and raised in Guinea in West Africa. In our early conversations, we both mentioned our hopes and desires to help children get a better education.
Through the years, we have prayed, researched, and even started investing in this ministry. We are now at the point where we need commitment of resources (volunteers and finances) to fulfill the vision on our hearts.
We hope you join us in this vision.
We are still early in implementing the ALCM vision; so there are not many impact stories yet. But we do believe we are destined to fill a great need; and many stories will be shared very soon after our first school is built and operational.
We already purchased land in Guinea, West Africa. We immediately built walls around the land to secure against others building on the land we just purchased. The workers building the wall said the construction was blessed because not a single person was injured during the project.
As you can see by the pictures, workers are not required to wear protective equipment and clothing. Many were actually bare foot! We took it as a sign and a blessing that no one was hurt when the wall was finish!
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live an abundant life.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
