It's Friday 💝 It's story time. 👋🏾

About Sixteen years ago I said, “Let’s build something for our Black community in Scotland that leaves nobody behind.” TEC has been around since 2009, and it’s with great pleasure that we’re inviting you into our next phase. 🎉

We listen first, then go hunt for funding to make your ideas real. But here’s the honest bit: gratitude that keeps the lights on looks like *feedback*. Funders ask us to show impact - and the proof is you: a 20-second video, a quick form, or two lines that say, “I got the job.” That tiny update keeps doors open for the next person. 🙏🏾

So let’s do this together:

Lunch & Learn (In-Person)
đź“… Sat 20 Sept 2025
🕒 3:00–5:30pm (prompt!)
📍 Townhead Village Hall, 60 St Mungo Ave, Townhead, Glasgow, G4 0PL

What to expect:
🥗 Chill hangout + refreshment
🗣️ Feedback corner (video/voice note/form)
🧩 We’ll co-design our next project - jobs, training, childcare, housing, immigration, mental health… tell us how best we can support you.

We’ve been on this journey a long time - and the next chapter needs your voice. Come through, bring a friend, let’s talk.

Dear friends, supporters, funders and partners of The Esther's Company,

As we reflect on the past year and look ahead to the opportunities of the New Year, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support and collaboration. Together, we have made significant strides in empowering individuals in the Black community in Scotland.

Through your commitment and generosity, we have been able to provide these individuals with essential resources and support in the face of the profound challenges they encounter, including employment barriers. The impact of our work has been evident in the feedback from our service users, as well as the testimonials we have received which shows the positive effects of our projects in fostering skills, reducing isolation, and building resilience.

As we continue to address the issues faced by this community, our mission remains clear: to create safe spaces for individuals to thrive, to ensure their voices are heard, and to help them access the support they need without fear of jeopardising their immigration status.

Thank you for being a vital part of this journey. Your support makes it possible for us to build stronger, more inclusive communities, and we look forward to continuing our work together in the year ahead.

Wishing you all a peaceful, prosperous, and fulfilling New Year.

Warm regards,
Ola Olaleye

The TEC Community Hangout was a fantastic success! I had the incredible opportunity to share my passion for The Esther's Company and connect with so many amazing people. I shared our story—who we are, what we do, and the exciting path ahead.

Reflecting on our journey, which began 15 years ago, it’s inspiring to see how many lives we've impacted. This year alone, we've proudly helped 23 individuals secure full-time positions in the civil service, two in the private sector, and supported a TEC member in launching her own charity.

We were also honored to have our trusted partner, lawyer Wale Olabamiji of DMO Olabamiji Solicitors, join us to address pressing immigration questions affecting our community. At the core of our mission is a commitment to development, prosperity, and empowerment.

The event featured three fantastic businesses: , led by the talented Joke Coker; Abi and Kay family-run business, Kaythekingevents, treated us to delicious mocktails and fun on the 360-degree photo booth; and , showcasing stunning African outfits. And let’s not forget the delicious jollof rice and puff puff!

A heartfelt thank you to our funder for your unwavering support!

Imagine a world where the power of God's Spirit is unleashed, where His people are IGNITEd with a burning passion for Him. It is a world where fear is replaced by faith, doubt is replaced by trust, and despair is replaced by hope. Can you picture it?

A world where churches come alive with the power of the Holy Spirit. Worship becomes more than just songs; it becomes an encounter with the living God. Prayers are no longer empty words, but conversations with the Creator of the universe. The Word of God gains new weight and authority, as hearts hunger and thirst for the truth. Lives are surrendered, hardened hearts melt, and prodigals return home.

So, my friend, I challenge you to rise up in faith and expectation. Prepare your heart and soul for the mighty OUTPOURING of God's Spirit. Allow Him to IGNITE a passion within you that cannot be contained. And together, let us eagerly await the day when the heavens open, and the OUTPOURING of His Spirit flows like a river, forever changing the course of history.

Sometimes, I reflect on how we start the year with such high hopes but as time goes on, we begin to doubt the things we prayed and believed for. We start thinking that maybe these things aren't possible because we haven't seen them come to pass yet. This discouragement often leads many to give up and start hoping for the next year, putting off their aspirations. However, today I want to encourage you to hold on. God's timing and ways are different from ours. He works in ways that surpass our understanding.

Although there may be moments where it feels hopeless and discouraging, we must remember that God's timing is perfect. He sees the bigger picture and knows precisely when and how to bring our desires to fruition. It is crucial to maintain our faith and trust in Him, even when it appears that our prayers are unanswered.

When doubt and hopelessness creep in, we can choose to let fear and uncertainty consume us. However, we can use these moments to build and strengthen our patience and consistency in our relationship with God. We need to remain steadfast in our belief that He has a plan for us and will fulfill His promises in His own time.

Therefore, let us not be disheartened by the passing months and unfulfilled expectations. Instead, let us seize this time to draw closer to God and deepen our faith. We must trust that He has not forgotten about us or our dreams. Let us continue to pray, seek His guidance, and strive to align our will with His.

Remember, the journey towards our goals is just as significant as reaching the destination. Every step we take, even if it seems insignificant, is part of God's divine plan. Embrace the process and have confidence that He is leading us toward something greater.

As the year comes to a close, let us not push everything off until the next year in despair. Instead, let us surrender our doubts and worries to God and embrace His timing. Have faith that He will bring about the breakthroughs and blessings we have longed for. Trust that He is working behind the scenes, orchestrating everything for our ultimate good.

Therefore, my friend, do not lose heart. Continue to wait upon the Lord with patience, knowing that He is faithful and will never abandon us. Stay focused on Him, and soon enough, we will witness the manifestation of His goodness and grace in our lives.

Keep pressing on, trusting that what He has promised will surely come to pass. Appreciate the journey, even during the challenging moments. And remember, God's ways are higher than ours, His thoughts surpass ours. So, let us surrender our doubts, fears, and impatience to Him and continue to walk in faith and trust.
