MAKE ME A CHANNEL OF YOUR PEACE

Make me a channel of your peace,

Where there is hatred, let me bring your love,

Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord,

And where there’s doubt, true faith in you.



Oh, Master, grant that I may never seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love with all my soul.



Make me a channel of your peace,

Where there’s despair in life, let me bring hope

Where there is darkness, only light,

And where there’s sadness, ever joy.



Make me a channel of your peace,

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

In giving to all men that we receive,

And dying that we’re born to eternal life.


This Month of April, as some places would be conducting political elections, let us make ourselves instruments of peace and not nay sayers. We may not carry weapons or steal ballot boxes, but our negative comments and inactions can be worse of. Let us know that whatever happens in the polity of our society would invariably come back to us or our loved ones.

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

August Theme

Our thematic issues for this month is #NextGeneration We urge us in love to pick one of the issues under our theme for the month and help share messages, videos, pictures and matters for discussion and action plans under any of the issues. Let's dig deep into the concept of preparing the next generation of leaders, professionals, members of the society among others, which comes from God Himself right from creation and see how it improves acts of charity and social development. Humanity has survived since creation because intentional efforts have been made to prepare for generations to generations. Families birth those who'd constitute the next generation. If we don't prepare the next generation, we'd have a retrogressive situation which is highly preventable. #NextGeneration #August TLF 💚
