#We were warmly greeted by the teachers, grandparents and children at the Muslim community school. A Disciples of Christ woman contributed 50% of the cost (50% from the state) to build the school for the children. Amity, a Christian social service organization arranged for the land. These children had lost parents to AIDS and were drifting. Now they are happy going to school. 20
