their own State again. Fifteen recent graduates of S IM ’s Igbaja Teachers’ College, in western Nigeria, have offered to go as teachers to the area. (2) To provide an evangelical witness both needed and wanted. Besides direct Christian teaching in the school, there will be many opportunities for pulpit supply in churches, and gospel team work through C h ristian students. SIM hopes soon to re-open its bookshop at Port Harcourt, 40 miles from Bori, to provide a base for the dis tribution of Christian literature. The education team will stimulate this ministry. The SIM and ECWA teachers have been seconded to the Rivers State Government for a specified time, probably two years. The team will gradually phase out, being re placed by Rivers State personnel as they become available. “It is apparent that the Lord has given us an entry into this area, where the need is great and the spiritual response already has been demonstrated through the ministry of the medical relief team at the Bori Hospital,” says Dr. Kraakevik. “We need the prayer support of Christians in the homelands for the work, the financial needs, and espe cially for spiritual results among students and others.” In another display of confidence, a largely Muslim community in Ni geria’s heartland has appealed to SIM/ECWA to take over the pro prietorship of their commun ity high school. “There is no one we trust as we do the SIM and ECWA,” state com munity leaders. Roman Catholics had been pressing to run the school. When the community agreed that SIM/ECWA could operate the school according to their Christian principles, SIM/ECWA accepted re sponsibility for a trial period. A mature Christian Nigerian principal will head the project. Prayer of the Lord’s people everywhere is re quested by all the workers. KB
