Fireman We are very much indeed looking forward for the Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative to get underway – to do the job that needs to be done for everyone. Speaking directly from the heart, we need support from government as much as we can and from the public, citizens, belongers and visitors to accomplish our goals for Virgin Gorda. Principles, guidance and accomplishments -- speaking on a day-to-day basis, we do have to try harder to get things in place so we can have a better country. Speaking from the heart again, young people need a sounder direction coming from all of us in this country. Folks, I want you to tell me what are we going to do? Don’t wait too late. Let’s do it now. Kaunda Leonard, Kypsy Tropix I here by pledge my support to the Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative plans, because once in motion and operated properly I believe it will be a huge asset to the youth, the parents and the community of Virgin Gorda. Any structure that will enable us to network the resources of our community to better enhance and sharpen our youth’s abilities will be greatly appreciated. From my understanding while sharing with Ms. Marianne Larned, Executive Director of the Stone Soup Leadership Institute this program has a track record and has been proven to work. It is my desire that we all see these plans come to fruition to further augment and develop our youth body on the island of Virgin Gorda. Pastor Gregory George It is admirable to see how Ms. Larned and the programming of such projects as the Vieques Youth Leadership Initiative have demonstrated their devotion to the philosophy of her book, by making a commitment to help young people around the world pursue and develop their dreams to the fullest potential. Its contents provide the courage to see things differently and clearly, while clinging to the important things that give meaning to life, as we of the British Virgin Islands have tried successfully to do for generations. The interest and enthusiasm displayed by the young people as they seek to enhance their leadership skills is very rewarding. Any support in producing fiber and strength to this venture will only provide the core for the advancement of our talented and gifted young minds. I give my full support of the implementation of programming by the Stone Soup Leadership Institute to make the Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative a reality. |
What People Are Saying As a resident and businessman, but more importantly the parent of a youth in the Virgin Gorda community, I will like to express my sincere appreciation and support for the Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative project, we welcome this project with much gratitude.The youths of Virgin Gorda need to have a sense of direction, to have goals and dreams and to know that, their goals can be accomplished and their dreams can be realized only with hard work and determination, this will help equip and enable them to become adults who will make a positive contribution in their community. About a year and a half ago, I met Marianne Larned and was immediately impressed with her dedication to a wonderful mission to inspire and develop leadership skills in young people from under-developed communities so that they will step into full adulthood with the tools, strength and commitment to make a positive contribution in their community and homeland. The Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative could be a wonderful addition to the education of our young people. We are very lucky to have a woman with so much experience and expertise offer to share her talents and guidance with our children. The children are more than ready for this leadership program. The British Virgin Islands need these young people in the future as our country continues to address more issues as we move forward into the 21st century. Thank you very much for the updates. I’m so happy that we are making progress with so much work done by you. You're an angel from heaven. I'm also very happy that a leader has been spotted so that the Virgin Gorda Youth Leadership Initiative could get on the way. I support this much needed program 100% and will try my outmost best in any way possible. Continue your beautiful work here even though sometimes it might become a little tiresome or frustrating and even facing resistance. God is with you especially in trying to shape our youth for the future. God bless you Marianne. Church of God Holiness
It's so nice to know that the light in you that shines in the darkness is bringing much inspiration and guidance to the youth of this community despite the evil forces of objection and selfishness of others. But like John the Baptist, we have to continue shouting it out in the wilderness with conviction and power that there's much to give our youths than merely concentrating on how much property we can sell for the mighty dollar. So continue doing what you're doing and as long as you do it with sincerity of heart, God will see you through because he has promised never to leave us as orphans as long as we remain steadfast in our work for him. My prayers are constantly with you. God bless you.
