Because the work is expanding and the need is great here in
Madagascar, we felt strongly a need to build up a Crisis Counseling
and Training Center
in Antananarivo, the capital city. The Center will be :
a place for people to feel welcome, affirmed, and accepted just as they are, a place where they will experience God’s Grace and Unconditional Love, a place of Rest and Training, a place of Restoration and Rehab for addicted people, a place to bring up and restore abused children between age 4 and 12 from
needy families
This therapeutic environment
will be called “BALM OF SOUL Center” which means Balm
for Soul. It will be the first of this kind in Madagascar. So far
the ministry and activities still take place in the house of the
leaders. They
do want to separate family life from work and ministry.
Presently, Balsaman’ny Aina has got land on which we would
like to build the Center.
Content of the
building :
FIRST
FLOOR: Auditorium for seminars and conferences, Office, Kitchen
and Restroom. SECOND
FLOOR: Counselling rooms, Prayer room, Library and Audiovisual,
Dormitories.
