Africa Education & Heritage Project

In 2004, a partnership with Mercy Seat of God Fellowship International in Nairobi, Kenya.  This relationship allowed NLBC to provide the children of the second poorest slums in Nairobi, Kenya with an education.  The school started with 20-30 students whose classroom were held under a tree.  The school was named The Tortola Child Rescue and Education Centre (TCRAEC) is now a concrete structure with nine (9) classrooms and a current enrollment of 290.  God has blessed the New Life Baptist Church to provide financial assistance and other aid through numerous fundraising and donations.  In 2006, the first team from NLBC visited the school to start working on the building.  The new building is to provide secondary education for the children in the community.
