The whole Armour of God

Marie my daughter gave Lilian and I a wonderful gift of the whole Armour of God. Apparently she has learnt that this portion of Scripture is one of my top favorite so I am very happy that she drew this with her own hands and thought of us. This is so lovely and thank you again Marie.

Bloom Training

Last week I was teaching literacy workers to use a computer program called Bloom. Bloom is actually a program that was designed with new computer users in mind and it has special features to guide users so in actual fact, people need less training to use Bloom. Bloom can help more people get involved in building a large collection of books in the local language...Some of my learners are very interesting and I learn a lot from them too. One of them actually describes the mouse arrow on the screen as a spear and the process of clicking as shooting with a spear. This is probably because when you click, something happens... I am always on the look out for such easy way of explaining things so that they can connect properly with my content. The other day, they thought I was very fast just to realize that they are instead the ones that are very slow. We all laughed about that.

Drive carefully and safely

Driving is one of my hobbies but sometimes it is very challenging because it is one of those things that you have to be 100% alert. Mistakes are not actually really allowed when driving. A couple of days ago I was going to Kumbo and upon negotiating one of the bends, the vehicle started sliding on the tarred road. Apparently, there was some diesel that had spilled on the road probably from a truck or something. The more I applied the brakes, it even slide the more. In order NOT to knock down some three guys on a motto bike, I had to turn steering wheel too fast and the vehicle made a U-turn on the road and hit the other wall on the other side of the road. Did I hear myself saying that I had to turn the steering? It must have been an Angel of the Lord doing that on my behalf because that was indeed a miracle! We were able to continue our journey all in one piece. Praise the Lord we came out very safe. I had the vehicle straightened out a few days later. A couple of days later, I packed the car on a hill and apparently it was on neutral gear so it started moving when people starting going inside. The angle of the Lord turned it from the hill to the gutter just for me ALONE!

The demise of my father (Barah Charles Ndze)

My Dad Barah Charles Ndze was born sometimes in 1942 at Wainseeri - Kimar in Jakiri sub-division in Bui Division. He was the only son of Shufai Wainseeri and Mary Mbuume who have both gone to be with the Lord. When my Dad was young he attended RCM Sop for three years and ended unceremoniously because he was beaten mercilessly by his teachers. The story is told that my father was loved a lot by his parents so it was hard to deal with unfriendly teachers. One day he was placed on the desk and beaten mercilessly on his buttocks until he could not sit up when he returned home. That was the end of school for him.
Sometimes later he when to Bamenda to be with his relations Shey Shuka and Fomduwir Christopher. He later returned to Banso and got married to my Mom sometimes in the seventies. It should be noted also that My Dad was mostly a patient for the greater part of his life. When I was still a toddler my father fell so sick and almost died. It is said that it was because he built his house untop of my grandfather's grave without knowing. Because of the illness, he had to leave their compound to neighboring Mbiim compound where we spent a few years. Shey woo Mbiim at the time took very good care of us.
We later moved to Kinkhadzer near Sop. My father spend most of his time farming and taping. Actually he was one of the best palm wine tapers around. In March 2016 he fell sick and was taken to Banso Baptist Hospital (BBH). He was due to have an operation but that didn't happen because his health could not permit that. Despite his health situation, he was very hardworking.
At his dying bed, my father confessed his sins to my Mom and asked for forgiveness. Pastor Sam was able to come and spend time with my father and he finally received the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Saviour before dying a few days later.
He has left behind a widows, 6 children, 8 grandchildren friends, family members and well wishers to mourn after him.
Please join us as we celebrate the life of our father and thank God for what He has done in and through Him.
