This is the church building in the rural village of Nyerzee. On Sunday morning it is a lively place bursting at the seams. Dozens of children meet outside under the trees for Sunday School. Adults squeeze together on benches inside. The congregation is thriving and growing and needed more space. They prayed and gave and saved and worked to build a new, larger chapel adjacent to the current one. A foundation was laid and slowly walls began to rise.
 Last month through a gift from the Outreach Foundation of the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. they were able to add a roof and have begun to worship in their new church home.
