EDUCATION AND FAITH<br />
News from the CHAPLAIN<br />
I have spent time over the past 5 weeks with a Pastor from Pakistan who has<br />
started a small <strong>Christian</strong> School within his community. Ps Arif Alshiq shared<br />
some stories with me regarding the struggle many people face in Pakistan in<br />
order to gain an education. There are few schools available and the cost to<br />
attend is so great that many young children are growing up without the ability<br />
to even read their own language. In order to make a difference Ps Arif and his<br />
wife decided to start a small school that would offer a free Christ centred<br />
Ps Arif Sharing with Year 11 & 12 students<br />
education to any children of any faith and background. This school has begun to tech the basics of reading, writing and<br />
Mathematics to 135 students, many of whom are street kids, including 35 children from Muslim families. By giving these<br />
children a foundation of faith and education they are given a hope for a better future. How fortunate we are to be<br />
living here in Australia to be blessed with a school like <strong>Riverside</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>College</strong> that also strives to give our children a<br />
strong foundation of faith and education.<br />
I am truly thankful that I have the opportunity to see my children attend <strong>Riverside</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>College</strong>, and I am also<br />
thankful for the passion and commitment of people like Ps Arif who serve to give hope and Gods love to those who need<br />
it most.<br />
