Ministries in Namibia for the I Have A Name Pen Pal
School Project. This ministry connects Namibian

to have a relationship with the Talitha-Kumi
Christian Academy in Arandis, Namibia.
Volunteers from His Promise visit the Florida
schools, sharing information about Namibian

Namibian students making bracelets, and they
also get to see Namibian student artwork. As
part of the project, each Florida child
participating in the project can connect with a
counterpart in Namibia as a pen pal.
