The word ‘Alheri’ is a Hausa translation of the word ‘Kindness’.
Hausa is one of the major spoken languages most especially in the northern part
of Nigeria.
The word ‘Kindness’ appears meaningfully more than seven (7) thousand times in the Bible. True followers
of Jesus see kindness all around Him. It is important to know that kindness is one
of the fruits of the Holy Spirit who is God; and this means that without kindness
there is no Holy Spirit, and if there is no Holy Spirit it is as good as saying
there is no Christ.
The advance Learner Dictionary define kinds as “the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate.”
The early Church which began on the Pentecost day was clearly seen as a generous and considerate society, the Church was identified by these virtues. It became obvious and those who had property for their luxury had to sell it or bring it to the Apostles’ feet for distribution. Monopoly was destroyed and decentralized economy was introduced because a new government, the government of Christ came in with new values.
Wherever Christ rules it becomes a place of kindness, a
place where you will find generous and considerate people who are not just
willing to help but look around to see who is in need of help. It was for this
reason Christian Faith Ministries headquarter was named ‘Wurin Alheri’ which means
‘The Place of Kindness'.
We as a body of Christ and as lights of the world must shine through dark corners of selfishness, hatred and greediness. Christian Faith Ministries sees this as necessity therefore has written it boldly on the ministry’ entrance and on a bus that carries staff and school pupils around.
