In 2005 the intention was set by the Religious
Science International Youth Seminars Program to increase our
participation in our global community. Shortly after that
time a series of incredible coincidences occurred that led us to
be contacted by a group in Africa looking to expand the education
of its people. The youth seminars program then embarked on a
bold initiative to support the building of two schools in Malawi,
Africa. Over the past two years the project with the support
of a select few individuals, in particular Rev. Keith Cox, has
moved forward by finding the resources needed to fund and then
build these schools. It was decided that we should work
through a group who already had experience in working and building
schools in Africa by the name out of "Building With Books."
It is anticipated that in June of 2007 a delegation from the youth
seminars program will travel to these schools to participate in a
ceremony that will celebrate their opening.
