Human Rights Day (Dec. 10) . . . In many parts of the world, girls face barriers to education, and other opportunities to earn a living. In Afghanistan, Zarmina felt frustrated by her community’s belief that a girl’s place is in the home and not in the classroom. In an effort to make life better for her daughters, Zarmina participated in gender equality training with PWS&D partners. Zarmina shared what she learned about a child’s right to an education with other mothers, fathers and village leaders. As a result of her advocacy, the community now enthusiastically supports girls’ education. “We hope that one day there will be no child out of school, not only in our community, but in the entire country.”
PWS&D Is Making a Difference For Girls Around The World.
THE HEIDELBERG CATECHISM
Q. #122 What does the first request mean? A. “Hallowed be your name” means, Help us to really know you,
to bless, worship, and praise you for all your works and for all that shines forth from them: your almighty power, wisdom, kindness, justice, mercy, and truth. And it means, Help us to direct all our living—what we think, say, and do— so that your name will never be blasphemed because of us but always honored and praised.
