INSPIRATION
Our inspiration comes from the book of Joshua 24:15b, and I quote ‘As for me and my household we will serve the Lord’.
As quoted by Archbishop SoC villages on the 25th of July 2007. The highest courage is to dare to be yourself in the face of adversity, choosing right over wrong, ethics over convenience and truth over popularity. Travel the path of integrity without looking back for THERE IS NEVER A WRONG TIME TO DO THE RIGHT THING
