An Architect Missionary: LEA Ministry & Primary School

While in Tanzania, Musa introduced me to Martin Tango, and his friends Peter Lulu and Jeremiah. Martin and his wife started an amazing ministry a few years ago, that by God's amazing grace has grown and is helping so many homeless and very poor children. With God's help, I will be drawing plans for student housing, essentially an orphanage for about 200 children on land adjacent to the school. Presently, LEA rents spaces for these children to live, but they are very small (requiring 4 persons per bunk bed), and costly. Following is a photo of Martin, his wife, their four children, and four others living with them. Below that is a description of LEA, with more photos at the bottom of the blog.
