My name is Kovo Elijah, and I have been serving in the Pwani region as the STEM Staff of the North Coast Christian Unions.
God’s provision during this season has anchored my trust in Him. I have learned to live submissively in Christ and appreciate His will. I have been greatly challenged to reflect on God’s mission and my role in it. I hope to hold fast to these convictions and be swift in obedience.
My skills in MS Office tools, research and reading, interpersonal communication, budgeting, and accounting, and preparing and faithfully preaching the gospel have been sharpened in my STEM journey. In addition, I have gained new skills including content development, resource mobilization, planning, and conducting training.
The value of God’s investment in my life through the people who are around me has been greatly echoed through the FOCUS associates, friends, and partners. They have supported me in prayers, with their resources, and opened their homes for me. I pray that the Lord will be gracious to them and they will remain vigilant to do His work. My gratitude also to the FOCUS Pwani region staff team and the North Coast region Christian Unions for the warm welcome and acceptance.
I hope to get back to my training in Microbiology. I hope to actively share the gospel in my field of training. I hope to fix my eyes upon Jesus and trust Him for grace in my engagements beyond STEM.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you. Shalom.
