@Ifydime_Editor said:
"This is absolutely beautiful. The students learning here would definitely enjoy learning with this sort of space."
@laoluojed said:
"Great news. Though alot of people don't really value "free" things. The zeal/commitment is different when you know that you're paying something (no matter how small) for it.
"Good work!"
@AimThaMachine said:
"This is a huge project that'll impact lives and outlive you. I pray this project and the program is successful and all forms of corruption that'll raise it's ugly head do not see the light of day. IJN, Amen!"

"Iren is not trending. CCI is not trending. Pastor is not trending. Church is not trending. Nobody wants to talk about this one.
"But let one pastor make small mistake, una no go let person rest with how you don't go to church because Christians are not from Christ."
