TOGETHER WE DID IT!

We are delighted and grateful to announce that Wholly Yours Ministries – New Beginnings Vocational Technical Institute in Nankoma, Uganda, has successfully completed the construction of the foundation and slab, marking the end of the first phase of this phenomenal project! The slab stage is the foundation and the floor.

To give you some perspective as to the scope of this project, there are two buildings, one is 138' long x 35' wide, and the second one is 65' long x 28' wide. Each will be two stories and will house our administration offices as well as provide 14 classrooms. Each classroom can hold over 50 students. The slab phase has been completed for BOTH buildings!!!

We give all the glory to God and extend our heartfelt appreciation to our generous donors, and everyone who has believed in this vision and contributed toward finishing Phase One and making it a reality.

Thanks to you, our donors, and all the people in the U.S and Uganda that were involved in making this happen. I'd also like to extend a special thanks and appreciation to Pastor Patrick Wangira, Wholly Yours Ministries Director of Missions – Africa, for his faithful leadership, coordination, and diligent implementation of this project.

This is more than building. it is an investment in the future of young people. The institute will equip many youths in Nankoma and the surrounding region with practical and technical skills, creating opportunities for employment, entrepreneurship, self-reliance, and a better future.

The foundation has been laid, but there is still much more to do! That's where you come in. You can help us start and complete Phase Two. Phase Two will bring both buildings to the point of adding concrete wall blocks up to the floor of the second story. It will take between 25 - 30,000 blocks to complete this, and we're estimating that each block will cost approximately a dollar, maybe a little less as we'll be making our own blocks on-site.

We invite you, our friends, partners, churches, organizations, and well-wishers to join us in supporting this life-changing project. Every prayer, donation, and contribution brings us one step closer to completing this vision. You can help us by contributing funds to buy blocks.to build the walls. Each block is only $1.00 each and however many blocks you can afford is very much appreciated, even a single block will help. While we can't write names on the blocks, we do plan on recognizing those who contribute any amount to make this happen. When all phases are complete, we will have a plaque made that will permanently be in the building with the names of all contributors that wish to have their name added.

You can give through our PayPal account (whollyoursministries@gmail.com), CashApp or Venmo (account # $WYM59), and through regular mail to Wholly Yours Ministries, 483 Oak Hill St. NE. Abingdon, Virginia 24210. If there's any other method in which you'd like to give, just let me know and we will accommodate.

Thank you for believing in the vision. Your support is vital in making this happen.

Together, we can equip a generation, transform communities, and change lives through technical education. Thank you for believing in the vision. Your support will help make this happen.
