Chasing after the highest-paid position is pointless. Service to others is the highest calling. People have become educated but have not become human. Be a good human being, a warm hearted, affectionate person. That is my fundamental belief.
Service is the lifeforce of patriotism. If you can't take the weight of the world on your shoulders, take the weight of your nation, if you can't take the weight of your nation, take the weight of your city, if you can't take the weight of your city, take the weight of your neighborhood.
Start small but start somewhere. This is the task of our life to place people in our mind's altar and serve them with all our heart. Today, just remember that no amount of service you give or acts of kindness you provide to humanity are ever wasted. Stepping out of eco-anxiety into action takes more than hope. It's about courage.
Acknowledge the feelings of stress and despair, lean into compassion and commit to action every day. Stand up for the next generation and our shared future. “I hope that people will finally come to realize that there is only one ‘race’ the human race and that we are all members of it.”- Margaret Atwood.
Love is the crowning grace of humanity, the holiest right of the soul, the golden link which binds us to duty and truth, the redeeming principle that chiefly reconciles the heart to life. “Our human compassion binds us the one to the other not in pity or patronizingly but as human beings who have learnt how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future.”- Nelson Mandela.
We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity; more than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
Kelma Foundation flag and vision bearers, initiators and founders we joyfully and faithfully join the newly established hub of more than 65 male teenagers and youths/ Boy children and worship God together in Mlolongo area in Machakos County. This is a bold step of humanity and humility. We normally provide finger-licking lunch for all after Church Service. The first Sunday Service when the hub was set in place in November 2023, the preacher was one of the street youths who powerfully and precisely preached about repenting and reconciling with God from 2 Chronicles 7:14. We are earnestly praying and looking forward to growing this viable life-transforming initiative to empower them, make the Gospel more practical, to be productive nation builders and reuniting them with their beloved family members and the society at large. We kindly urge any like-minded person, well wisher, donor, sponsor or philanthropist to chip in with any form of support either moral, material and spiritual support in making this noble, humane and life-transforming initiative a success.
