#Day 1 Women\NonViolence

 

Month Review

A common saying says, ‘train a woman, train a nation’ people also believe that when you empower a woman, you empower the nation.

Imagine now if the girl child is endangered how can you ensure a future of great women?

Violence among some boys is taken as play, sport or initiation to manhood, but for a woman, violence is seen as an aberration.

Violence against people in general must be kicked against but in particular violence against the girl child and women.

Acts of charity towards victims of violence helps in supporting social development.

We have an assurance, if justified by faith, that no weapon fashioned formed against you and me and our loved ones shall prosper.

No matter the increase in the spate of violence, we can rest assured that Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour has us safe.

Psalms 56:1 Be merciful to me, O God, for man would swallow me up; Fighting all day he oppresses me.

2 My enemies would hound me all day, For there are many who fight against me, O Most High.

3 Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You.

4 In God (I will praise His word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?

5 All day they twist my words; All their thoughts are against me for evil.

6 They gather together, They hide, they mark my steps, When they lie in wait for my life.

We are using the next 7 days to discuss, celebrate and create awareness about women with regards their several international days marked all through the year and why there should be no instance, issue or abuse against the female gender.

We are saying no to domestic violence against women.

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 ...
