When we first acquired the land, our dream began with the renovation of the main house. But God had bigger plans, inspiring us to create the Fanilo Community Rooms—“Fanilo” meaning lighthouse in Malagasy. These vibrant spaces became a beacon for the local community, hosting Bible studies, craft workshops, children’s clubs, and more. Over time, we expanded, adding kitchens, a medical room, and even a much-loved community shop.

In 2000, the ABC Preschool was born. Recognised by the Local Education Authority as a model for others, it has nurtured countless young minds and remains a cornerstone of the area.

The main house underwent a transformation, staying true to its original footprint while gaining an extension and a second level. This became the Living Waters Guest House, offering rest and rejuvenation to families escaping the hustle of Antananarivo, and also serving as the home of Martin and Mary.

The success of our guest houses inspired us to create Still Waters, a charming lakeside retreat perfect for those seeking peace and solitude.

Today, these spaces continue to serve our community and visitors alike. Explore our guest houses and book your stay using the link below.
