NEW LIFE BEGINS IN GERMANY 🇩🇪 FOR PRISCILLA‼️

Priscilla Mulenga is among the 9 students who departed from Zambia 🇿🇲 to start a Bundesfreiwilligendienst (BFD) programme in Baden-Württemberg 🇩🇪 with our trusted and long-standing partners, AWO Württemberg.

Priscilla began her German studies at DDS Lusaka and worked steadily through her language levels with great determination and commitment. Along her journey, she made several trips to Zimbabwe in order to sit for her German examinations at ÖSD Harare. She later completed her final B1 certification at the new ÖSD Prüfungszentrum Lusaka, where she obtained her ÖSD Z-B1 Certificate. This certificate was then used as proof of German language proficiency for her visa application at the German Embassy in Lusaka.

The BFD, or Bundesfreiwilligendienst, gives young people the opportunity to travel to Germany and work in social fields such as hospitals, retirement homes, childcare centres and other community organisations. It is not only a chance to gain work experience, but also a valuable pathway into German life, often opening doors to future apprenticeships, studies and long-term opportunities in Germany.

Our cooperation with AWO Württemberg has grown stronger over many years. Only last week, several students who had begun their journeys through our nursing apprenticeship programme completed their 3-year Ausbildung in Germany. We are therefore incredibly excited to see this new BFD chapter begin and to watch students like Priscilla take their next step.

Most importantly, we thank and praise our #KingLordJesusChrist, who has been the foundation of every success story at DDS. Through His grace and favour, Priscilla’s dream has become a reality. Our #KingLordJesusChrist has continued to guide, strengthen and bless our students, making a way where there once seemed to be none.

We were privileged to accompany Priscilla and her family to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport to say our farewells as she left for Germany. It was a proud and emotional moment as she embarked on this exciting new journey.

Congratulations, Priscilla! We are so proud of you and wish you God’s richest blessings as you begin your new life in Germany 🇩🇪
