"Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!"
(2 Corinthians 9:15)

"I Met God at this School"

2 & 5 Christian Academy is a private school in Kigali, Rwanda,which is managed by Nanuri Limited, a member of SfK Missional Business Community. 2 & 5, representing 2 talents and 5 talents, was started in 2012 by a few missional entrepreneurs with two classes of 37 students. Over the years, the school has continued to grow with additional students joining steadily. There are currently 206 students..

This year, our first group of 20 students have graduated. They performed very well in the Rwandan national exam and have earned a stellar reputation from parents as well as the government authorities.

Although important to meet the expectations of parent and school authorities, what has excited these missional entrepreneurs most was not necessarily the high scores received during the national exam by the graduating students. It was the growth of the children in their faith in the Lord. Their maturing faith was the fruit of their labor and services.

This year, they had a special cause for even greater delight. One graduating child's confession note wrote: "I met God at this school."
 

 
Prince Nziza Nkotany is a 12 year old student at 2 & 5 Academy. He comes from a non-believing family, but was introduced to the gospel at this school and received Jesus as his savior and his Lord.
 

Prince likes Proverbs because he believes that divine wisdom is superior to the knowledge he is learning in the school classrooms. As he was studying Proverbs, he realized that the fear of God is the beginning of the wisdom (Proverbs 9:10), and as he gains wisdom, he has been able to meet and know God. What an amazing confession of faith!

Prince desires to be a medical doctor and help those in need.

As Christmas approaches, Prince's story warms our hearts because it is this very reason Christ became flesh: To save people God has chosen before the foundation of the world in His perfect time.

Jesus was the perfect and most precious gift to us all. When our hearts come to Christ, like Prince, He is delighted and even all angels in heaven rejoice.

Jesus is the reason for the season of Christmas. How can we not give our lives to Him as a living sacrifice as a response to His sacrificial love?

People like Prince are the reason for SfK missional entrepreneurs to continue their efforts in serving people in need through the God-given platform of missional business, trusting that their services please our Lord Jesus Christ.

Praise the Lord!
