Last year we were blessed to have three children graduate from secondary school (high school). In Nigeria, only about 30% of applicants get acceptance to higher institutions due to overcrowding. We did not want our kids sitting idle while waiting on acceptance to a University, so we found apprenticeships in the town.
Michael was able to learn hair barbing and earned his own barbering shears.
Toyin was able to learn photography and earned his own laptop for editing, camera hopefully to follow.
Miriam was able to learn hairdressing.
We are so proud of them!
Vocational skills like these, will help them at University and afterwards. They are also blessed that their sponsors have helped to support these apprenticeships prayerfully and financially. Here are just a few pictures of them.
Please pray for our graduates.
