Vanuatu consists of 83 islands spread over 900 km with two operating eye clinic, and they are about to open a third clinic, staffed by local eye care workers and teams of visiting professionals.

Our team has been requested to build an extension on one of these clinic, as current space has become inadequate, for storage of sophisticated equipment and supplies.

On the ground at Port Vila, the people seeking the assistance of an MMM team are also hoping that some of their local people will be able to work alongside our MMM team members to build their personal skills and expand their building expertise.

We are seeking a Team Leader skilled in concrete block work, in cyclone areas, and general building experience. Also needed on the team are general building skills, plumbing and electrical skills.

We need a team of only four or five, so perhaps your are our team leader and already you know of three of your church associates who would join your team. We are expecting this team to be available between June and September. We expect the project will take only about two weeks.

Please consider this opportunity. Involve your church, your the Mission Committee and get them involved too. The MMM Project Dept. would be happy to visit your church and speak with your people about this and other Off Shore and local Indigenous projects we are involved with.

Please call Peter Taylor (02) 4975 2849 , or email at peter@mmm.org.au for more information

From these faclities, many church leaders and teachers are trained and equipped for ministry into the surrounding province, reaching extremely remote villages and people groups who are yet to hear the Gospel. In addition to this, they provide schooling to local children as well as reaching out to many underprivileged giving them the basics of an education.

Some of the other needs include the construction an outside toilet block, to renovate internal toilet and shower facilities, level buildings that have sunk in the wet conditions and build a classroom and kitchen at the school. Storm water drainage is an issue also.

We are forming teams to begin an ongoing relationship Scott Wisely and his family and team. For this we need carpenters, handymen, plumbers, cabinet makers, and plasterers.
