TOGO DIESEL GENERATOR PROJECT

Through LCMS Office of International Missions, GSLC is contributing to an infrastructure project at the Centre Luthérienne d'Études Bibliques in Dapaong, Togo (CLET-Togo). The project funds provided a diesel powered generator to supply needed electricity during public utility power outages. The seminary had been experiencing lengthy power outages, sometimes lasting several days or even weeks, making it difficult to carry out daily activities as well as required periodic administrative reports. The total cost of the project was $13,745, which has been partially funded. Our monthly contributions are helping pay the remaining $7,493 which was needed for the purchase and installation of the generator. Additional projects needing funding at CLET-Togo include the drilling of a well which would provide a water supply for the seminary campus, as well as be a source of water for CLET employees and staff. The public water supply also experiences lengthy cuts, lasting up to a month during which finding water for daily needs is a struggle.
