Construction and Maintenance

The Skylark Retreat Centre has been in place for nearly 18 years. God's people dreamed of, and constructed, this little piece of heaven on earth, and His people continue to lovingly care for and maintain it.

Each year, a team of volunteers from Canada travels to Skylark to perform maintenance, make improvements to what already exists, and complete larger-scale projects. Volunteers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and have just as varied skill-sets. Activities range from painting to plumbing, from wiring to welding. They augment the work done by the Skylark staff on the ground, bringing a different level of expertise and a general helping hand. A recent project included the construction of perimeter fencing, ensuring the security of the Centre for visitors, staff, and community members.

Projects benefitting the outside community of the Skylark Centre are also undertaken, such as aiding in the construction of local Christian schools.

The Skylark Retreat Centre is a true gift. The diligence of our staff on the ground combined with the efforts of the volunteers on the Construction teams is what keeps the Centre looking its best.
