RETIRED EXUMA ADMINISTRATOR ORDAINED AS REVEREND

By ALESHA CADET Tribune Features Reporter acadet@tribunemedia.net

IN A special service, former Exuma Administrator Everette Hart was recently ordained as a reverend. It took place at Kemp Road’s

Ministry, where Rev Dr Ivan Ford Butler is pastor, during the church’s 79th anniversary celebrations. A native of Rolleville, Exuma, Mr Hart started working when he was just 14 years old.

Throughout the years, Mr Hart has worn many hats; that of assistant

teacher, head teacher, principal, Family Island commissioner, parliamentary commissioner, as well as consultant for many major developments in the Bahamas. He is also a fisherman and enjoys sailing on the turquoise waters of Exuma and its cays.

Vanessa Smith, the church’s public relations representative, said Mr Hart, after rededicating his life to the Lord and being baptised, wholeheartedly gave himself to serving in the church as a Sunday school teacher, director of Christian Education and

lecturer in both New Providence and Exuma.

He supports many of the churches and denominations in Exuma and is a member of Ebenezer Union Baptist Church in Farmer’s Hill, Exuma, where Rev Stephen Smith is the pastor.

In attendance at the church service, Ms Smith

said, were his wife, Ethelee nee Missick, the couple’s 10 children, 16 grandchildren, as well as many friends and well-wishers, including former Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham, North Andros MP Leonardo Lightbourne and former Cabinet Minister George Smith.

Bahamas Strong Families Forever kick off 2023 activities on International Day of Happiness

By JEFFARAH GIBSON Tribune Features Writer jgibson@tribunemedia.net

BAHAMAS Strong Families Forever –a social enterprise/ non-profit organisation that seeks to cultivate families that stand on the spiritual and moral principles of God and His word – will officially start its year of activities on Monday, March 20, which is recognised by the United Nations as the International Day of Happiness.

Bahamas Strong Families Forever was started by Cheryl Walkine-Alexandre in direct response to the devastating blow of Hurricane Dorian and on its heels the onslaught of the global COVID-19 pandemic.

“After having navigated my own personal hurricanes

and on-going pandemic-like trials beforehand, I knew our country and people would require special tools and insights for healing, recovery and sustenance, like I did. This is a particularly necessary for at-risk, vulnerable, and low socioeconomic status (SES) families, dysfunctional families, fatherless homes, and families with disabilities,” she told Tribune Religion.

The non-profit organisation Marriage Children Family Alliance Movement (McFAM), whose mission is “Cultivating Strong, Healthy, HAPPY Families” chose March 20 as the launch date for Bahamas Strong Families Forever’s “Road to 50 and Beyond” Independence campaign activities.

“We saw this as a pivotal date. There has been

so much sadness in the past year and even before COVID-19. The United Nations saw a need to recognise and promote happiness as a global right of all human beings and we are happy to be joining them as we believe in

happy families,” said Mrs Walkine-Alexandre.

“Happiness is an aspiration for most people. We are an organisation whose mission is to create strong happy families saw it important to recognise this day.” Since launching two years ago, the

organisation has covered “tremendous ground” by increasing awareness of the pivotal role family plays via meetings, education and discussions with government members, policymakers, organisational leaders, and in public broadcast mediums.

“We started a campaign about a year ago with regards to us building and cultivating happy families. That is actually the mission of our non-profit organisation,” she said.

“Along with number of other partners, we have been able to bring together resources that would be helpful for families to build capital, to help them to take care of these resources, to nurture bonds, and to build them to the capacity where they can give back to the community.”

Why not … the whole will?

Ihad a brief but interesting discussion with someone recently. We had been discussing their future plans and, well, here is how it went:

ME: I think your plan is going to work out great!

PERSON: Appreciate it. God’s willing, yes it will.

ME: I often wonder why people say that?

PERSON: I mean that if it is God’s will, it will happen.

I continued the conversation by sharing that if we serve God and are guided by His Word, then we are given His wisdom to complete any task; and we would have secure knowledge of that Will before embarking upon any journey. The person countered by say this, “I don’t think it’s a matter of completing the task. I think it is a

matter of understanding that what we want or envision, God might redirect.”

Immediately, I began to understand that my definition of the will of God was perhaps not wrong, but definitely incomplete. And, of course, it gave me another idea into the Prayer of Jabez.

Let’s take a look at what we know of the prayer and how it aligns with the Will of God for our lives.

• BLESS ME INDEED –We are assured in the Word that God wants to bless us with both temporal and spiritual blessings

• ENLARGE MY TERRITORY – Increase has always been God’s original plan for our lives, and it is His desire that we multiply in every area.

• ALLOW YOUR PRESENCE TO STAY

WITH ME – We live with the promise that God hasn’t changed, He will never leave nor forsake us.

• KEEP ME FROM EVIL – Thessalonians guarantees that our faithful God will guard us from evil.

From this simple prayer, Jabez seems to be asking us, “Why not ask for Blessing, Increase, Presence and Protection?”

These are all promises found in the Word, and the Will of God for our lives. Here is where I fell short in my understanding.

Jabez, although he prays for these general things found in God’s will for all of us, he doesn’t determine or demand how, when or where each is fulfilled. With this in mind, I reached a deeper understanding of the will of God.

God’s will is not only found in promise. God’s will is also found in process. We all ask for the promises of God, as we have a right to as His children. However, we don’t determine the timing of God or how He directs or redirects our path. We do not determine the process that we undergo to arrive at our purpose in Him. I have always enjoyed writing – penning poetic, sermonic, melodic words. I thought (way back then) that it would only be for the Church. Little did I know, I had been prepared for an even broader platform, and that it would be through the trauma of divorce that I would find a national voice.

I find this expanded view of the Will of God re-energising. As I remind myself

of His promises, I submit myself humbly to His process – gaining great peace in knowing this dual Will of God.

I spent so many years angry and disappointed –wondering why He hadn’t blessed me…hadn’t given me all the promises in His word…hadn’t come through for me the way I thought He should. But, with new insight, I realised that I was never lied to, short-changed or denied. God did exactly what He had always promised. I am blessed. I have experienced increase. His presence is always with me and He has kept me, in ways that I couldn’t imagine. I think then, the person with whom I was chatting is correct. We can’t be so blinded by the promise of God’s will that

As the organisation commemorates the 50th anniversary of the independence, it will also take stock and examine the changing health and strength of the family over the years.

“We cannot talk about ondependence until we talk about families. We need to look at the state of families to determine how our country has progressed. It is very important for us to look at this,” said Mrs Walkine-Alexandre.

The organisation will host a number of events in the lead-up to July 10, including a ball to award “The Family of the Year” and recognise 50 strong families who have blazed a trail to this national milestone.

AYANNA CARTWRIGHT

we forget the process of His will.

The road to standing fulfilled in the Will of God has its share of twists and turns, directions and redirections based on all sorts of things. However, our security lies within Jabez’s prayer. No matter the journey, we can be certain of the blessing, the increase, the presence and the protection we gain by believing in the promised will of God.

God bless you this week!
