The Leaders of Tomorrow Scholarship
Transform South Sudan currently has 10 talented students who are attending universities throughout eastern Africa. These students were identified by our leadership as having significant potential to learn as well as a strong desire to give back to their communities with their knowledge and skills. Each of them are studying a skill or trade that will be reinvested in their villages to help bring development in a specific area that is desperately needed.
Believing firmly that you can feed a man for a day if you give him a fish but you equip him to eat for a lifetime if you teach him to fish, we are equipping individuals with skills and abilities that will benefit not only the recipient but their entire village. As we have seen with our first recipient (Dr Angelo), when desperately needed skills and services are identified and the need is matched with a potential student who can be trained to become become a provider, we create an opportunity for communal thriving.
Please join us in praying
For our current LOTS recipients : That they would be able to learn well in their academically challenging environments. That they would score well on their exams and fully grasp…
For the villages they will be returning to : That we would be effective in equipping them to give back to their villages upon their return. This often requires a thoughtful strategy and additional investment to help multiply the learning benefit across thousands of people in the area.
For our future scholarship recipients : Pray that we at Transform South Sudan would identify the people that God would want us to invest in next. Also pray that God would bring alongside the donors who would be willing to shoulder the cost involved in completing their degree.
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
(Matt 25:35-40)
