Berean Mission had property at Huerfano, NM which formerly had been a boarding school for Navajo children. The Berean missionaries had been instrumental in starting CDC, and so it was a great blessing when this property was made available for a women’s ministry of CDC.

The Lord led the former men’s director and his wife to pioneer this work, and they got a team of couples and individuals together to set up a program. So in 1997 the first fall session of CDC began for Native women! Local Christian Native ladies have also helped in the ministry by teaching, supervising the dormitory, and doing crafts.

In the year 2000, Berean Mission deeded its property to the Dzilth Naodithlii Bible Church located on the premises, and CDC continues to cooperate with this Native church to use the buildings and carry on the program.

Right now the women’s work is without a director or counselor, and so the ministry is on hold. The board and staff of CDC are trusting God to raise up another team of workers to resume the program. Much prayer is needed for God’s provision in every way, including financial support.
