In the lively world of education at Jubilee, one teacher stands out for her youth, energy, and the deep impact she has made on her students. Ms. Keyla, just 26 years old, joined us in 2023 and she is now the fourth-grade teacher. Her experience has been transformative for both her and her students.
“I feel excellent at Jubilee,” Ms. Keyla says with a smile that shows her enthusiasm. “This place has been a deep meeting point with the Lord. Although I already knew Him and had a good relationship with Him, being here has allowed me to know Him more intimately.”
For Ms. Keyla, one of the most striking aspects of her work is seeing how God’s word has started to make a difference in her students’ lives. She shares, “It’s amazing how the Lord has worked in my students’ lives. I’ve seen significant changes, especially in two of them who were very disobedient at first.”
The transformation she has seen is remarkable. With love, discipline, and prayer, Ms. Keyla has witnessed a substantial change in these children. “One of them, who used to be a problem, now advises his classmates not to run in the stairs to avoid accidents. This is incredible, considering that this same child once pushed another down the stairs.”
Ms. Keyla also firmly believes in the positive influence of devotional time on the children. Unlike her experience in other places, where punishment often leads to anger and worse behavior, at Jubilee, the children respond with humility. “After receiving a punishment, my students not only apologize with letters but also include Bible verses. It’s a clear sign of the Lord’s humility in their lives.”
On a personal level, moving from her small town to the city was not easy for Ms. Keyla. She recalls how challenging it was to adapt to the new environment but is grateful for the support she received. “The support from the director and pastors, guided by the Holy Spirit, was crucial in overcoming this challenge. My faith is always in the Lord, and I am excited to know that He takes care of us even in the smallest things.”
In summary, Ms. Keyla’s story is a testament to how faith and commitment can greatly impact education and a community. Her dedication and love for her students, along with her deep relationship with the Lord, make her an inspiring figure at Jubilee.
