Je comprends donc qu’un bon leader doit d’abord se conquérir lui-même avant de commander les autres. Ensuite, il doit servir les autres. Enfin, il doit être un enseignant et un maître, mais avant tout il doit être un parent.

In the Christian churches, when the theme of peace in the world is addressed, the tendency is to deal only with the question of how to apply the work of Christ to the people’s present lives. Although the Bible shows that God’s work extends to the whole of humanity, peace tends to be limited to a few privileged countries on a few continents.

Si nous essayons tous de pratiquer l'amour vrai, sans se soucier ni de l'apparence ni des préjugés, nous pourrons ressentir la liberté d'être unis les uns avec les autres grâce à ce même amour. Je pense que l'Eglise au plan mondial peut exercer une plus grande influence dans la réalité quotidienne de notre temps pour promouvoir la paix entre les nations si elle pratique vraiment les enseignements du Christ et collabore avec l'ONU.

Congratulations to our UPF Ambassador for Peace, Mr. Komlan Mally on his recent appointment as the new Prime Minister of Togo on December 03, 2007.
