The 2026 Angola Mural Projects
-
One mural we plan to paint is for the yet-to-be-built chapel at the CEML Hospital in Lubango, Angola. We intend to paint a triptych (three panels) to be left on-site and installed at a later date.
-
Another mural we plan to paint is for the new Children’s Wing at the CEML Hospital in Lubango, Angola. We intend to paint two panels.
-
The third mural we plan to paint is for the CFB Livingstone School on location in the Mitcha missionary compound in Lubango, Angola. We intend to paint two panels depicting the “Natural Wonders of Angola” for this elementary school.

About
Bethany’s husband Michael has been on repeat short-term missions to Angola since 2011. He has mainly taught ESL but also assisted in the library at the ISTEL Seminary in Lubango. Bethany joined the mission in 2024 when they restored “The Red Thread” mural at the CEML Hospital there (in addition to other activities). They are excited to return in 2026 to paint not one, not two, but THREE brand new murals in addition to other activities!
