8th of March is International Women's Day.

8th of March is International Women's Day.
It is our D-Day for our theme for the month of October.

Although Women are majorly celebrated in the month of March, we have decided to harmonise all the days set aside to celebrate women and discuss their issues into one month.

Specifically in this month, we have the 11th to mark International Day of the Girl Child and on the 15th we have the celebration of the International Day of Rural Women.

We commend all those individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who carry out activities relating to women and by extension girls, their rights, struggles and unique qualities. 

God bless your labour and work of love.

May we not do anything in vain.

We invite you to watch Sheryl Sandberg on "Why we have too few women leaders" 

Remember Proverbs 31:25. "Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come." 

To the Women!


I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man, I keep his house.

-Zsa Zsa Gabor

I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.

-Gloria Steinem

In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man. If you want anything done, ask a woman.

-Margaret Thatcher

Behind every successful man is a surprised woman.

-Maryon Pearson

The hardest years in life are those between ten and seventy.

-Helen Hayes (at 73)

I refuse to think of them as chin hairs. I think of them as stray eyebrows.

-Janette Barber

If high heels were so wonderful, men would still be wearing them.

-Sue Grafton

If you can't be a good example - then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.

-Catherine

Whatever women must do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.

-Charlotte Whitton

Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission.

-Eleanor Roosevelt

Remember the ultimate law is love.

God is love.

The phrase "working mother" is redundant.

-Jane Sellman

Every time I close the door on reality, it comes in through the windows.

-Jennifer Unlimited

 Old age ain't no place for sissies.

-Bette Davis

A man's got to do what a man's got to do. A woman must do what he can't.

-Rhonda Hansome

When women are depressed they either eat or go shopping. Men invade another country.

-Elayne Boosler

There is no wisdom outside of God that is pure and wholesome.

Your life in God is most important.

In all your celebrations, research, workings, submit to Jesus Christ and be fervent.

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 ...

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...
