This slideshow will show the beginning to present building process as well as pictures of the students their supervisors and local workers who have dedicated their time to make this project a reality.
The shell of our Kitchen/Dining Hall will be completed around the end of this month. We are so excited to have this facility that will allow our children, visitors and staff to gather together for meals. We have been separated at meals since IAA began due to lack of space. This facility will also be a blessing for: community gatherings; cooking for larger groups of visitors; and as a gathering place for the children to do homework, crafts, Bible Studies and more.
