Dear Friends,
This morning, I was deeply touched by the Scripture, “He has
made everything beautiful in His time” (Ecclesiastes 3:11 ). How
appropriate for the ministry the Lord has put into our hands. It has been said by global teaching experts
that secondary education is the key to breaking the cycle of acute poverty in
developing countries. But we acknowledge
that it is Christian education that will bring positive changes to Africa and beyond. An African educator, and
good friend of mine, Dr. Stephen Talitwala, has said repeatedly, “You can take
a thief and educate him… but what is the result? A smarter thief.”
Why? Because we
understand that it is Godly principles and Christ-centered leaders that
ultimately impact their communities.
Your ongoing partnership is important as this has been our commitment
and it is long term, no doubt. However,
today we can see the fruit of our labors through our KDS graduates, many who
have earned college degrees. Others have
gone on to start their own businesses but all are significantly influencing
the world around them.
In 2013, we will welcome another nursery class into our
program. These precious little ones will
learn from a very young age that education is a gift. What they become is their gift to God (based on a
quote by Eleanor Powell).
Indeed, we are committed to providing a wholistic Christian
education to the children of Kinyago-Dandora.
Together, with God’s help, we are making a difference. And God has promised to make everything
beautiful in His time.
May God richly bless you in the New Year as you have richly
blessed this ministry.
For His Precious Little Ones,
Ginger Palm
President
