Encouragement from Daystar

"For no one can lay any foundation
other than the one already laid,
which is Jesus Christ."
1st Corinthians 3:11, NIV

We all need encouragement, especially in times like these!  I hope you will be encouraged as you watch the video below and take to heart Rachel's words: "Jesus, our firm foundation, is unshakable, immovable, and is the only one thing that has stayed constant.  Hold on to him and you will not be shaken by what is going on in the world".   

May you know Jesus as your firm foundation today.

Thank you for the encouragement you are to us!

In Him, 

Alan

Special Message of Encouragement from

During the Covid-19 lockdowns at Daystar, your support for Daystar scholarship students has never been more important. With all classes moved online, students have shifted to their homes where they and their families depend on your support not only to complete their studies but to survive through economic hardship.

Scholarship student, Hans, shared about how they are feeling during the upheaval during the Corona virus pandemic.

Hans wrote, “With the recent reports on the global pandemic, it has been quite difficult to put what I have learned into practice since we are all practicing social distancing by self-isolating at home. The university has really helped in ensuring that we are able to proceed with our classes uninterrupted through the e-learning platform. The school has even gone the extra mile to help students in purchasing internet bundles by reaching out to all mobile networks in Kenya and enabling us to purchase internet bundles at lower rates making learning to continue smoothly.

Since I am almost finishing school, a prayer request I have in mind is strength; emotionally, physically and psychological so that when I am done with school and can begin my life’s journey starting with employment. I pray for strength that I may be able to endure the challenges that come before me, and that I may not stray away from the Lord’s will.

These four years that I have been at Daystar University have been mighty fulfilling, and it is all thanks to you. Had it not been for you, I probably wouldn’t have been the man I am today, and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity given to me and I wish you nothing but God’s favor upon your life. Thank you and God bless you and your family, as you have blessed my life immensely.

ENDOWMENTS
Our scholarship endowments are the financial building blocks to help Daystar look to the future with confidence.  An endowment gift is the single most important way to make the university available to students for years to come.  As the endowments grow, Daystar can expand its ability to challenge and nourish lives.  When you help with a deferred gift, you take a very personal stake in the kind of education that builds Christian character as it creates an environment of academic excellence.

PLANNED GIVING
Through planned gifts you can support Daystar University while improving your financial security. In fact, just one planned gift can return an immediate tax deduction to you, plus lifetime income for you and a loved one, plus long-term financial support to Daystar.
