We want to see
“Worship through Arts”
developing in Gepiu

Smiles already implemented so many good ideas for working with the young people in Gepiu, from spending time together as casual as pyjamas parties to serious Bible Studies for every week, and we noticed their interest in being part of everything going on is growing. All of them are enthusiastic about doing things that are only possible because the Community Centre is there for them. This time we really want to get them to do many and various things that will help them discover their gifts and talents, for developing their abilities towards a truly and more complete Christian life altogether.


One of the new activities is learning to play guitar
.
This is part of the larger concept of finding and growing the talented people, teaching them how to improve and use their skills for becoming good at it. We are pretty confident that at least 3 or 4 out of about 12-15 that want to start a guitar class will finish with great success, and we want to be able to provide the tools and assistance needed in order to achieve that. Of course, even though in the beginning we might have many people willing to start, later on some of them will find the process too difficult or they might loose interest once the hard work has to be put in; nevertheless, we are prepared to go on with all of them, as far as they want and can do it.


We’ve got the teacher for the guitar classes. We’ve got the students too. But we still need the guitars at this point.  Can you Help?

Adi's Tileagd Class - Gepiu needs Guitars too!


We need up to ten guitars. Because the students are all above 14, and because we want to teach them play less of classical guitar music and more of a modern style, we need 6 strings large body guitars, western type. These are appropriate for our purpose. We need also some accessories, like extra string sets, belts, picks and so on, but as a main need, the guitars come first. Of course, the “complete package” purchases that contains all of these would be even better, but we will use anything and everything we get.

If you want to participate in this and become a part of our vision to bring the arts and worship together for the young people’s benefit, you are welcome to support the project and your contribution is much appreciated!

Let’s do this together, as all of us can bring in a little bit for the common goal!
Either donate guitars and accessories to come on the Container, or make a financial gift allowing us to purchase the supplies locally.

The Young Musicians and the whole team at Gepiu will be so thankful as we develop Worship together! 

In Christ’s Service
