On February 11, 2021, Maranatha Volunteers International participated in a dedication ceremony for the new campus of the Jingshai Mihngi Adventist School in Jowai, India. A number of dignitaries attended the dedication ceremony, including members of the state legislature and regional Seventh-day Adventist leadership. All noted how impressive the new campus looked and how much it will positively impact the community for years to come.
The school is a literal breath of fresh air for the students, teachers, and families. For years, students met in classrooms that were located next to an open sewer line. Besides the horrible stench, many children learned in dilapidated sheds that were dark, cramped, and leaky. Yet, this K-10 school boasted an enrollment of 477, due to caring teachers and high scores on standardized tests.
