Our Book Reading and Video Screening for the first Quarter of 2024 is Love Dare

It's been suggested that we do something practical here in line with our theme #New Beginning.

Again we've suggested we create a reading competition- online - with a book we can all assess online or a soft copy be made available - chapters or the whole book- and report- or post the video.

These are great ideas. I've been to a number of physical book readings. One had the author of the book read excerpts to us. One had all of us being given copies of the book and we encircled ourselves and read. Another had us sit while one person read from the book and we shared our opinions at the end. Trust me, these were great times in my life. 

I've multiple copies of some books I wanted to replicate in the TLF Centre. I got copies of Love Dare. It would be interesting if we do this once more where we can gather in peace for this.

So for the first quarter of the year 2024, we would like us to read "Love Dare" and have a viewing of the movie "Fire Proof" once again! 

We can share a video of us reading it, or a voice recording, or we can post chats on what we read and what we think of what we read.

...happy new year again

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...

Today is the second part of our D Day for the month of August!

Today is the second part of our D Day for the month of August! Although this celebration is marked in the month of May, we have harmonised all relevant sub-themes dealing with family and youth under this month of August.  15th of May is International Day of Families.  We commend all those individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who engage in one form of activity or the other to promote wholesome family life and the true meaning of family.  God bless your labour and work of love. May we not do anything in vain. Remember - Matthew 12:49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, "Here are My mother and My brothers! Psalm 113:Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!

You too can organise such a wonderful event. In TLF we inspire...
