Advice to Children and young People
According to Proverbs chapter 6 written by Salomon; There are seven things the Lord hates or
detests: The first one is being arrogant; the second is a lying tongue; the third is hands that kill the innocent; the fourth
is a heart that plots evil; the fifth is feet that race to do wrong; the sixth is a false witness; and the last is a person
who sows discord in a family. To avoid all this, the guy who wrote the book, give some advice to children and young people.
I quote ‘’My son and my daughter, obey your father’s commands, and do not neglect your mother’s instruction.
Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck. When you go out, their advice will lead you. When you sleep,
they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you because their command is a street light
and their instruction
a lamp; I mean their corrective discipline is the way to life. It will keep you from the bad man or woman. It will keep you
safe. As I said before, You can read more about this in the Bible especially in Proverbs chapter 6 from verse sixteen. God
bless you. You are welcome every Sunday afternoon at Victoria Hall from half past two to half past four.

Real Poverty
Mother Theresa has created a worldwide awareness of the poor. Most of the poorest people are in developing countries
and in fragile states, where government is failing, where basic rights to life and security are not provided, where sufficient
food is a luxury, and where water, health and education are not guaranteed.
With the world cup, some people who were speaking much about the poor have the opportunity
to speak to the poor, to speak to those who live with less than $1 a day. The situation is worse in states affected by conflicts.
For mother Theresa, the rich countries face a big
challenge, which is the hunger for love. When the poor countries face the hunger for bread, the rich needs someone to talk
to.
The solution is around us, when you decide to say
hello to your neighbor, to visit the sick or to meet people after the Sunday service in your church. You got always something
to give and by giving you can receive love. Like Jesus said in Mark 12.30 to 31 – I quote you must love the Lord your
God with all your heart… and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ Pastor Hubert Kayonda, Masters MA in

Personal
boundaries and active listening
Personal boundaries are the limits we set in relationships that allow us to protect our selves
from being manipulated by… In the same way we set up boundaries, we need to listen to others, what is in fact breaking
boundaries by giving change to the listener. We listen to obtain information, to understand, to learn or we listen for enjoyment.
Both boundaries and active listening are important in our everyday life. The big challenge is to know when and how to apply
each. Students need an active listening from their teachers and at the same time personal boundaries are an important tool
for teachers. The business man will argued that It is sometimes difficult to make profit and at the same time listen actively
to his or her employee. Keeping the balance right is challenging but possible.

Job satisfaction
Job satisfaction
describes how happy an individual is with his or her job. In my study looking at religious leaders’ perceptions of their
emotional problems, I come across the link between working in a stressful environments and being satisfied. Previous studies
indicated that Working in a stressful job may
not inevitably lead to psychological distress (Ablett & Jones, 2007). Low satisfaction can lead to
depression. My findings indicate that christian religious leaders were satisfied in most aspects
of their work; therefore, they are less likely to be depressed. Making a link with what Jesus said in Mathew
11.28 – I quote ‘28Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.’ KJV
I can said
that Christian religious leaders try their best to find consolation from God. The happier people are within their job, the more satisfied they are said to be, and they are less likely to be depressed. Pastor Hubert Kayonda,
