A Sincere Plea For Peace

I know I'm drifting off the main purpose of this blog but I feel the need to share this with you. They say charity begins at home. Let's learn to love ourselves and love people around us. Let love be in our hearts and not hate. Let's learn to live at peace with others and pray for the peace of Nigeria and her leaders. Please continue...

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, born Agnes Gonxha Bojazhiu on 26 August 1910 in Macedonia and died 5 September 1997. She was commonly known as Mother Teresa of Calcutta. She was an Albanian-born Indian Roman Catholic Nun. According to her " By Blood, I am Albanian. By citizenship, an Indian. By faith, I am a Catholic Nun. As to my calling, I belong to the world. As to my heart, I belong entirely to the heart of Jesus".
She was the youngest child of her parents. Her father, who was involved in Albanian politics, died in 1919 when she was eight years old. After her father's death, her mother raised her as a Roman Catholic.
She left home at age 18 to join the Sisters of Loreto as a missionary in Ireland. She never again saw her mother or sister...

Okay guys! Here we have the latest Nursery School pupils. Looking too cute and smart, huh? Six of them got registered at Springfield Nursery School, Emene, Enugu on 10th October, 2012.
They're all starting from Nursery one and trust me they're very excited about school. I was discussing with the Rev. Sis (Sis Lucy) in charge of the Orphanage where they reside and she was telling me how they wake up every morning excited, jumping up and down and can't wait to get to school. They go to school excited and come back excited. All the neighbours know they're in school...lol...I can imagine how they feel...:) They never stop talking about school. She sounded very excited telling me about them. This brought tears to my eyes and to God be all the glory.
The school is already planning a Christmas party. Loads of fun ahead for them...:)

To everyone reading this, please continue to give. If you have not given please give. Education is the best gift you can give these children and it can only happen through your generosity. You have nothing to loose by blessing these wonderful children. Just look at them. Few weeks ago they didn't know they'll be starting school. Who knows, may be they never thought they would go to school. Only God has brought this favour on them so let's not relent in our giving.

Many thanks to everyone..xx

Congratulations to our six children!

Hi everyone. You remember I told you about six orphans we have chosen to sponsor to school through your generous givings? If you missed it, read it HERE . Well, I'm very pleased to announce to you that the six children, 3 girls and 3 boys have all been registered at Springfield Nursery School, Emene, Enugu, Nigeria. They got registered yesterday October 10th, 2012. They will be starting from Nursery one...:) We bought their uniforms, PE kit, sandals and books and all what they need to start school like every child deserves. They will be joining their mates next Monday, October 15th, 2012 to start classes.
I understand that there is an event for all private schools in Enugu at Okpara Square today and tomorrow so no school till Monday.

We have spent 225,000 Naira to get our kids registered, buy all they need for school and paid 1st term fees. Next up is 2nd and 3rd term fees for the six of them. This will cost us 112,500 Naira per term for the six children.

I will post pictures of them all set and ready for school on Monday. Isn't God just wonderful?

Please, to all who have promised to give don't hold back. You are giving a child, an orphan a chance to fulfill his dreams, make something of his unfortunate story, change our nation, make a difference. Do not hesitate please. Any amount will go a long way.

To all who made this possible, Baba God no deh sleep. Your reward is immeasurable. God bless you all.
