MEET KENNEDY NYANJWA

Kennedy Ouma Nyanjwa (age 15)
Jubilee Scholar, Class of 2013

Kennedy was born in October 1993, and is the oldest boy in a family of six children. Kennedy was a very strong primary school student and attended the Heartspring Academy in Kager village.

Kennedy is one of two Kager youth first sponsored by the Jubilee Village Project to attend secondary school. Kennedy attends St.Paul's Ligisa Secondary School. St. Paul's is about 7 kilometers Kager and is sponsored by the Catholic church. The students there are compelled to attend catholic mass every Sunday, but they are given room to worship together through the week as other Christian faiths. The school has a Christian Union body which invites speakers from outside and Kager Vision Centre has conducted several evangelistic missions at the school. The current principal is a born again Christian and loves the Lord.


“Me as Kennedy Ouma, I am grateful with the Jubilee Village Project. Being one of the most benefitting projects in the community, it should be promoted to the highest level. I am so grateful to the Jubilee Partners and Champions. I am grateful to the JVP since it has something that is going to help the village and make life easy in the village. One of the things is that it is going to make education affordable and enjoyable for me and other people as well. From this, the whole village is going to benefit.

I am supporting this, since it is going to make me someone with meaning after I am done with education. I ask everyone to turn to Christ and begin praying for this great work to continue as long as the world exists and reach others as well in Africa and the world.

I am working to be an engineer in future, and through the assistance from JVP, I want to promise to work hard in my education and achieve this. I also wish my fellow JVP scholar the best and ask her to work hard and achieve her goal in future through the support from JVP.

Finally I want to sincerely thank the one who began the project and ask God to guide everyone involved and take care of them, and give them more power and ability to do more.

God bless you all and God bless JVP.”
