The Beginning

GDQ's founders were among the first missionary families in Albania after the fall of communism in 1991. They began with six preschoolers, one teacher, and a small room. As the missionary community quickly grew, the need arose for a larger, but affordable program. GDQ began in the fall of '93, encouraged by God's obvious intervention. Through the generosity of many organizations and individuals, the school garnered a building, skilled volunteer laborers to refurbish it, equipment, supplies, materials and, most importantly, qualified teachers.
