[IMAGE CONTENT] Habari yaho rafiki yangu! That means ‘How are you my friend?’ in Swahili. I’m Tambika. I manage Lightglider Academy while Professor Watts is away. Running this place isn’t easy, but it is rewarding. I try to meet all the new Lightgliders when they arrive in the Courtyard. That is a fun part of my job! I was born and raised in Tanzania. Do you know where that is? It is a beautiful country in Africa. Growing up, I always looked for leadership positions in my school and community. I love to serve others through organization. I love plans. I love calendars. I love details. And all of these things are important at Lightglider Academy. Otherwise, everything would be more chaotic than it already is! One of my favorite stories in the Bible is when Jesus washes His disciples’ feet. As a leader - the ULTIMATE leader - Jesus took the time to serve His friends. That is the kind of leader I want to be! I encourage you to use your gifts to serve others. We need people in this world with all types of gifts and talents. Regardless of your giftedness, always remember that being a leader means serving others first. This is called servant leadership. Glide On! Tambika Here are some things to do and think about today: * What gifts do you believe God has given you? * What does it mean to be a leader by first becoming a servant? * In what ways could you be a servant leader? * What are your gifts and talents, and how can you use them to serve others?
