A TEAM of youths from Generation Peace Academy (GPA), working in partnership with Joshua House and Habitat for Humanity on a twelve-day service project, took time to meet President Donald Ramotar Thursday.

The project is part of the visiting team’s mandate to venture on overseas humanitarian missions that, among other things, seek to build partnerships and camaraderie with different cultures around the world.
GPA is a non-profit organisation under the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity (HSA-UWC). Its mandate is to empower young people to become a generation of peaceful people by discovering God, cultivating personal identity, establishing a unificationist lifestyle, creating a culture of heart, and preparing for future success.
GPA Project Manager, Hyomi Carty, said the team enquired about President Ramotar’s goals and aspirations, challenges as a country’s Head of State and leisure time activities. It is the first time in Guyana for the majority of the group which has only five days remaining before completing the mission.
Pastor Ronald Mc Garrell, who accompanied the group to the meeting with the President, was heartened by the opportunity the programme offers, widening the youths’ perspective on life and promoting world peace.
