Sometime again in December 2015
TLF had its First Fund Rising and Awards Day.
We sent out invites and fund raising appeal letters.
We contracted caterers for snacks, and we bought the drinks.
We graciously got the Hall free courtesy of my mother's goodwill.
Jessica came with 2 special invitees, Pagha-iye came, Seger graciously did the work of an impromptu citation reader, Divine helped with the camera and I was the technician. 
Our Award recipients came with the exception of 2.
But 2 people I wish to mention here are Kristen and Somadina. 
I incorporated Kristen to help in the organisation and she invited her friend Somadina to help with the MC.
I believe a labourer deserves his wages and when I can't pay, I ask before work if the person will be willing to do it at no cost, so I don't owe, disappoint or end up borrowing to pay!
Somadina said we should pay anything!
He not only performed fantastically but he also helped in packing and arranging and doing other things for us in his suit.
We gave him an envelope at the end and without looking at it, he gave it back to us as his donation!
That's Somadina! 
I saw him again after then just last year and he told me he was passing through and had to stop in Benin because he just had an accident.
He said it so calmly and undisturbed by the incident, but just focused on continuing his journey.
That's Soma!
I just found out last week that it is his birthday today.
So I'm happy that though we do not see often, he has become part of our TLF story.
Join us as we celebrate Somadina on his birthday today.
I pray God blesses his new age and grant him higher heights in Jesus name, amen.

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...

UN Days for the Month of June.

The United Nations designates specific days, weeks, years and decades as occasions to mark particular events or topics in order to promote, through awareness and action, the objectives of the Organization. Usually, it is one or more Member States that propose these observances and the General Assembly establishes them with a resolution. On occasion, these celebrations are declared by the specialized agencies of the United Nations, such as UNESCO, UNICEF, FAO, etc., when they concern issues that fall within the scope of their competencies. Some of them may be later adopted by the General Assembly. 1 June Global Day of Parents   3 June World Bicycle Day  4 June International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression   5 June World Environment Day  5 June International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing  8 June World Oceans Day   12 June World Day Against Child Labour 13 June International Albinism Awarene...
