WHO WANTS TO GO TO HEAVEN
A young girl called Ngozi sought for permission to go to church from her sick mother.
She was granted permission and instructed to come back home immediately after church
service. Ngozi attended the church service and listened attentively to the sermon
delivered by the host pastor. During the sermon, the pastor admonished the congregation
to bear fruits of the spirit so that they could make Heaven. He asked his listeners who
would want to go to heaven to raise their hand. Every member raised his/her hands except
Ngozi.
After the sermon, the pastor called Ngozi into his office, privately. He asked her why she
did not raise her hands like every other members who indicated interest to go to heaven.

THE MOSQUITOES PRAYER
Our victims who are on bed, hallowed be they blood. Our time has come. Our will be
done on bed at midnight and every other night. Gives us this night enough blood for meal
and forgive us as we forgive those that spray insecticides on us every night. Lead us not
into strong net but deliver us from Mosquito’s Coils.
May their skin be our source of food for centuries to come Amen.

THE BOY FOR ME!
When a gentleman advertised for a boy helper, nearly fifty came to see him. Out of the
whole number, he chose one and dismissed the rest.

“I should like to know,” said a friend, “why you picked that boy who had not a single
recommendation.”
“You are mistaken”, said the gentleman; “he had a great many. He wiped his feets when
he came in, and closed the door after him, showing that he was careful.
“He gave his seat instantly to that lame old man, showing that he was thoughtful and
kind. He took off his cap and answered my questions promptly showing that he was
honorable and orderly. As I talked to him, I noticed that his clothes were pressed and his
hair neatly combed; when he wrote his name, I noticed that his fingernails were clean.
“Don’t you call those little things recommendations? I do; and I would give more for
what O can tell about a boy by using my eyes than for all the letters he can bring.”

Ranjennys School Anthem
Ranjennys children let us rejoice
Throw all our burdens down
If God has been so gracious to

of competent teachers
And good academic environment
Lovely for meditation and

Put away all sorrows
And shout with laughter for our

and discipline are taught
And where the standard is extremely high;
A home of magnificent excellence
