Published 2 May 2017

BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS, May 2, 2017 (PLP PR Media Inc.) — Prime Minister of the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, Dr the Hon Timothy Harris, on Sunday April 30 paid homage to Her Majesty Prison officers and visiting Justices of Peace of HM Prisons, at an awards service held in their honour at the Immanuel Methodist Church in Sandy Point.

Dr Harris, who is also the Minister of National Security, said his government appreciated prison officers’ work and the country should do likewise because they add value to what is happening in the country’s prisons.

Turning to the visiting Justices of Peace of HM Prisons, Prime Minister Harris said they bring an external view to ensure that justice is not only being done but through the eyes of the general public it is seen to be done.

“I want to join the Superintendent of Prisons, Mr Junie Hodge, in offering congratulations and commendations to all who are serving in Her Majesty Prison Service,” said the Prime Minister. “The police bring them (offenders) to justice and he is expected to provide them protection and rehabilitation under the watch of Her Majesty’s Prison.”

The Thought of the Day

Published 2 May 2017

Good morning my dear families and friends I hope that we all had a good night’s rest.

The thought for today says
“A man won a prize for a full-grown pumpkin shaped like a small jar! How did he accomplish this? When the pumpkin started to bloom he simply put the bloom into a glass jar and the pumpkin, as it grew, filled up the jar. He then broke the jar,and the pumpkin duplicated the size and shape of the jar.

Many times we do the same to ourselves. We place our selves in containers that limit our growth. The container will be just as large or small as
we believe it to be. It is a matter of choice.We can choose to grow or we can choose to become ripe and rot.”

But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary;they shall walk and not faint.Isaiah 40:31. Have a blessed Tuesday.

Today’s Tip

Do not ask the Lord to guide your footsteps, if you are not willing to move your feet.

The Thought of the Day

Good morning my dear families and friends i hope that we all had a good night’s rest.

The thought for today reminds us that “Anyone can support a team that is winning – it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage.”

Teams need support through good times and times of improvement. It may be your family “team”, your work “team”, or your community “team.

Will you be the one who has the courage to be there when they need you?

Have a blessed Monday and a Productive week ahead.
