SUMBA AND FLORES
The islands of Sumba and Flores, part of the Lesser Sunda Islands in Eastern Indonesia, are key areas for transformative education initiatives.
In 2017, a pioneering school was established in Sumba, serving as a model for Christian education across the island. It also provides training and support for 67 village teachers working in 25 remote schools. Expanding this mission, a partner school was founded on Flores Island in 2020, with Mustard Seed sending teachers since 2021. The school now educates 31 students with 5 teachers. In 2024, another partner school opened in western Sumba, providing education to 13 students with 2 dedicated teachers, further advancing the reach of quality Christian education in these remote regions.
