 So today I had various encounters in our Centre. 

First a lot of people came to ask for water. With the new electricity connection in the Centre, we are hard press to use of card discreetly. Well I thank God for borehole and access to water so the gates were flung open and they fetched to almost infinity! Just on the lighter side. 


Secondly was cutlass! Just like some of our items in TLF we utilise to raise funds for the Foundation via our registered business, I also use my many many tools for rental! But after pulling the old lady's leg I gave her, I knew I won't charge her but I wanted her to know it's purpose. 


Thirdly was garri! Yes oh garri oh, my Nigeria, turning very hard working people with a sense of prudence and dignity to people who need to crawl for basics. Just as I saw the crowd in the Secretariat of my profession when covid19 reliefs were shared, I also saw the multitudes that thronged Jos, Kaduna, Ilorin, Lagos, Benin and several other states in search of palliative in warehouses. Even though I can never support taking of things without permission, or stealing (as was the case of the private warehouses which were also attacked) or anarchy, I saw that THERE IS HUNGER IN THE LAND. 


No shame, no forming or pretence or choosing... people are in need and we don't need a Foundation, a conglomerate of Billionaires aka CACOVID or Churches to do the giving. We can all give of whatever God has freely given us. 


So yes I gave the little boy the garri and added chilled water as he said he already has sugar.


May God bless us continuously to give continuously and more abundantly. This in turn will lead more and more people to thank God, believe and pray for us, so says the Holy Bible in 2 Corinthians 9.

Our TLF 2 Day Event

Our TLF 2 Day Event started on Thursday and ended yesterday Friday. We had the person of Mrs Ishioma Francis who came to share good news with the children. We had Art competition and prizes were given. We had spelling bee and gifts were given. We had skipping competition and gifts were given. We had recitation of poems originally written by the children and gifts were given. We also used the opportunity to remind everyone of our theme for August. We shared our drinks and biscuits and everyone had a nice time. The children interacted and had a nice time. It came to a happy end and everyone went back home safely. We look forward to more activities such as these. We thank God for the success and blessings. God bless all those who contributed in various ways. Remember that, the ultimate law is love. TLF

Theme

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 ...

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...
