El Shaddai Building Fund
Covenant Missionary Society is raising money to purchase a school building for El Shaddai Christian School in Lahore Pakistan.
The school currently meets in a rented facility that will be sold when their current lease runs out (June 30, 2024). In order to provide the school with greater stability by owning their own building and allow for expansion in the future, we are looking to purchase a building for the school.
The cost to purchase the building and complete the necessary renovations is $80,000.
With your help, Covenant Missionary Society can reach this goal and continue the work we feel compelled to engage in with our brothers and sisters in the nation of Pakistan. We have received a matching donation up to $30,000 from Covenant Missionary Baptist church for all donations received by May 31st, 2024. If you have been considering a donation, every dollar you send will be doubled through this matching donation! If we are blessed with funds beyond $80,000, those donations will be used for the ongoing operational costs of the school (staff salaries, curriculum, uniforms, etc.). All donations are tax deductible and donation receipts will be provided.
If you prefer to send your donation by physical check, please make the check payable to Covenant Missionary Society and note the donation is for the El Shaddai School Building on the memo line. Checks can be mailed to:
Covenant Missionary Society
PO Box 170
Fairland, IN 46126

Please help if you can. Every donation makes a difference.
We have reached our goal!
If you would still like to contribute to this work, we will use any additional funds received for the ongoing operational costs of the school, advancement toward our long term financial vision, as well as the other areas of focus we have (Education and training of local ministers, poverty alleviation, and persecution relief).

“I am so thankful my children are taught the bible at El Shaddai.”
“The teachers and staff at El Shaddai love and care for my children.”
“If it were not for El Shaddai school, my children would have to go to a government school where they often face bullying and discrimination as a child of a Christian family.”
