Pastor Michael Gasare has noted that a servant of state is also a God’s servant.
He made the remarks while closing the second session of University Students’ representatives training about Godly leadership, good governance, Christian ethics in business environment, and Rwandan culture vs Biblical ethics, and Bible Advocacy.
Organized by the Bible Society of Rwanda (BSR), the training aimed at promoting both Godly and societal values and the possibility for the country to be led by the Bible especially in conduct and fulfillment of leaders’ duty.
Trainees are University Students’ representatives taught about norms of good governance to prepare them for future leadership.
“When you look back to the world’s history, there are people who started up well and ended tragically; some fled their countries or have been jailed and some ended with a bad reputation”, Pastor Gasare said.
Trainees who talked to IGIHE said they were glad and shall change their behavior and sensitize others to get such skills.
Evariste Ndengejeho from level 5 at INES Ruhengeri, in the Faculty of Applied Statistics says,“Knowledge gained from here will help us become helpful to others guiding them on good leadership with vision for their country while valuing the Bible teachings”.
Christina Natukunda from the School of Finance and Banking in charge of Gender, says she gained leadership skills.
The National University of Rwanda Students’ Association guild president, Christopher Muhima noted, “What I learnt from these trainings is that all leadership comes from God.”
The Bible Society of Rwanda started its activities in 1997 with duties to translate the Holy Scripture into the understandable language and getting them close to people.
Their values include leadership with fear of God, integrity and bringing change and promotion of solidarity.
