The First Sights


A few weeks ago, we shared a few thoughts together in a fellowship we usually hold every Thursday. We asked ourselves what exactly the role of God in our churches and to our societies is, and asked what God would have us do. It became quite clear to us that God was like a coach in the football match, he knows all the strategies, has all the answers, but cannot step into the feild of play.

Extreme Makeover Results


I’ve been extremely busy in the last 2 weeks, we had 2 training sessions for one of our multinational clients back to back. That was Friday to Saturday and Thursday to Sunday, it was excitingly tiresome as we had to prepare for both sessions, manage both sessions and also share in their fun. I’ve been very sparsely online as well, but I’m back now, and watch this space…lol.

About Extreme Makeovers, I had gotten mails from a few well meaning people, asking wassup. Well, what we decided to do was get an independent journalist – The Managing Editor of Inspire Magazine, Kayode Odeleye to interview the top 3 candidates so we can have a closer look at their lives and see who we would be willing to help. Please read the three interviews, have a look at some of the pictures, and let’s together decide who the first beneficiary of Extreme Makeover Nigeria will be. Their stories are arranged in the order in which they were nominated in the first round.

Pictures for the first two can be found here
