Learning about the powerful work of Père Pedro. He helped transform an area that was a garbage dump for the capital into community of 18 villagws with over 30,000 people and 37 new schools. People who live there receive housing on a loan they must pay back through working, that generates more funds to make more homes! “Akamasoa Community, the “City of Friendship”, founded 30 years ago to help poor people help themselves. In the Malagasy language, “Akamasoa” means literally “good friends”. Which is why the Community, founded by Fr Pédro Opeka in 1989, is called the “City of Friendship”. #Akamasoa #teachabroad #teachersofinstagram @elprograms @everydaymadagascar https://www.vaticannews.va/en/church/news/2019-09/adamasoa-association-madagascar-friendship-city-pope-visit.html (at Antananarivo, Madagascar) https://www.instagram.com/p/Byf8DsTgwKv/?igshid=1orrq4ey6fzmh
