Raymond Ayimba and Francis Otieno

We are pleased to announce this week's recipients for Student of the Week are Raymond Ayimba and Francis Otieno. As we near the last few weeks of the term, both of these young men have been fine examples of commitment and determination. Raymond found himself behind in his coursework recently, but has made an admirable attempt at making up for lost time and turning in missed assignments to catch up with the rest of Cohort 3. Francis has maintained a perfect score in both of his courses throughout this term and is a continuous inspiration to all in Cohort 2. For being recognized, Raymond and Francis will each receive a Safaricom data/voice bundle worth 750KES. 

We'll share with you below some of their observations from class discussions this week. Hope you are blessed by these thoughts and have a wonderful weekend.

"What stays with me is the journey of servant leadership. It starts in the heart with motivation and intent. then it must travel through the head which is the leader`s belief system and perspective on the role of the leader. Yeah, as a leader you've got have a plan in order for you to have an effective leadership to your people."

"Jesus gives us a completely different way to think about generosity. He talks about generosity in our judgments of other people. I've never thought that we can make judgements based on generosity. Sounds awkward but that is what Jesus is urging us to do, Maybe we don’t believe in God’s generosity, but once we come to understand how gracious he’s been to us, it ought to empower us to have that same sort of graciousness towards other people. Christians are too judgmental and quick to judge. Lets quit that habit.
