Abu Bakarr goes back to school

Abu has started attending school at UMC Kulanda Town School. It is right next to Mercy, so very convenient for him, and the walk is helping to strengthen his legs. Although he was in class 5 when he had his accident last year, the CRC staff have decided to put him in class 4 to help him recover the ground he lost by being out of school during his recovery. This will help him get a good foundation for success on the National Primary School Exam.

The Mercy staff was so excited to see Abu in his uniform. He normally attends the daily staff meeting/devotion and gets special prayers each day, and the staff were thrilled to pray especially for his successful return to school. 

​Abu has been anxious to return to school since the accident happened, and he is proud of his new school uniform, and happy to be attending school with his brothers and sisters from the CRC.
