  2. Vision Build a strong church whose Christians are spiritually mature, able to testify God’s kingdom in the world and whose social environment is fully bloomed. Mission Our mission is firstly to evangelize by proclaiming the love and salvation offered by God through his son Jesus Christ, “Go to all nations and make disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” Matthew 28 : 19-20 and secondly to manifest the love of God through the concrete actions of human and social development.

  3. Introduction • The climate change is the consequence of bad management of environmental protection. As the environmental protection is large matter,thisis the reason why we decided to limit our actions on only a few activities that our financial resources allows us to realize. • Our focus is on the following activities: • Produce and plant seedlings • Educatethe students’ awareness on environment protection • Setup anti-erosion devices • Teach farmers modern agriculture technics • Train the youths in other fields off agriculture

  4. 1. Produce and plant seedlings After sensitizing people on the on consequences of climate change, the EPR provided the materials needed like seeds, plastic bags, watering cat etc. which the farmers could not buy themselves. The involvement of the population in the activities in tree nursery is guaranteeing the sustainability of the project.
