Bishop Kulah of The United Methodist Church of Liberia visits an Operation Classroom facility.
Lynne Bevan DeMichele brings us this update from the Indiana conferences, "Operation Classroom."
Since the civil wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone, the task of aiding and developing United Methodist schools in West Africa has become complicated and much more difficult. At the same time, with educational and public-service infrastructures destroyed, the need for the ministries of Operation Classroom is greater than ever. DeMichele provides an overall look at what Operation Classroom is accomplishing today.

Operation Classroom is a program of the Advance; each school has its own Advance Special number. To obtain the Advance numbers online, you can visit Indiana Annual Conference's information pages on Operation Classroom Schools in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
