Jordan – new school

On a trip for Confirmation Sunday at the Church of the Redeemer in Amman, Bishop Dawani laid the foundation stone for a new school in Husn, Jordan.

With education for special needs children in great demand in Jordan and with the blessing of the Jordanian government, the Diocese of Jerusalem is expanding its educational outreach to Husn where special education is much needed.

Located near Irbid where the diocesan Arab Evangelical School includes vision impaired students in every classroom, the new school in Husn will follow in the same tradition of inclusivity for vision impaired children. Beginning with a kindergarten, the plan calls for school expansion one grade at a time to assure ongoing education for the students at the school.
