The Primary purpose of The City of Praise Foundation is Education, Health Care, Spiritual Guidance
caring for those children that are orphans and or children otherwise deprived of a regular and
meaningful life, growing into educated responsible Citizens of Indonesia.
The new city is being built on a 40 acres / 16 hectares estate fully paid for with the possibility of
doubling its size within the next 10 years.
A direct road is now being contemplated that will make access and growth possible.
Today the city is powered by a sufficient gas generator, but after the operation of our High School
we shall be eligible for government electricity, now only 10 km away.

CHURCH:
The first structure that was built is a church building with a capacity of 350 to 400 people.
SCHOOL:
The Second structure now in use is a combination of an Elementary and a Middle School
with a capacity of 350 children. The official Grand Opening was on July 15' 06.

DORMITORY:
To hold 60-80 students, faculty & staff including 4 guest quarters main kitchen and mass hall.
ORPHANAGE:
To be able to accomodate up to max. 200 children. Many children will be from local origin but a
substantial amount will be orphans from the Ambon Island.
CLINIC:
A sufficient size clinic and dispensary is now being designed to have at least 10 beds, 4 voluntary
nurses, and (2) voluntary doctors each to come twice a month from the Pontianak Medical Center.

HIGH SCHOOL:
A High School will be built as soon as we receive the funding for it. This project will be urgent as it will
be the key factor to be eligible for street electricity.
SWIMMING FACILITY:
A swimming pool will be built for recreational purpose next to the new Elementary / Middle School
building. Fresh water will come from a spring right on the property.

RICE MILL:
Presently we have a "Rice Mill" for local Rice Production use. At present many farmers are using this
equipment for a small rice grain payment. This mill is fired by a small diesel engine and is a "Gift" to
the City of Praise from outside machine equipment distributor. And this rice gift feeds many children.
VOCATIONAL SCHOOL:
We propose to set up as part of the High School a vocational department teaching hands on vocations
such as a modern Hatchery raising Fish for the local Market.
Second vocation, a Wood furniture Department.
To date, we have two of our own children having a College Degree, studying far the 2 above projects.
One Faculty Engineer in Pontianak University and one in Jakarta School of Fishery. They both will
graduate within the next two years.
