ALOR, Here I Come!
Alor, a small island with 2,119 km², is one of the 92 outer-islands in Indonesia, it is located at the east end of Nusa Tenggara islands. Its highest point is at 1,839 m, the island is surrounded by Flores Sea and Banda Sea in the north, Ombai Strait in the south, and Pantar Strait in the west. Alor Island is one of the two main islands of Alor Regency. Kalabahi, the capital of Alor is located on this island.
In this island, Friskal Gustiani Koho, or who were called Ika, serves GBI Kalabahi Alor. Her study in theology completed in Yogyakarta and her active participation in various trainings of Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta, make her optimistic to the service that will be done. Based on her experience, she focuses her service on children and youth. However, to begin a service in a new place is not an easy one, but she believes the importance of space for youth of Alor to make activities as well as the activities in Stube-HEMAT, so Ika tries to make breakthrough and networking.
Although most Alor’s youth have a tendency to migrate to Kupang as the province capital, to continue their study or to work, there are several universities in Alor, such as Tribuana University, Kalabahi class of IKIP Malang, and Theological Seminary. Those universities may become a gathering place and networking for the service.
Human strength is not much, but the power of God always gives strength and shows the way. Have a nice service and work, Ika!
