Vision Day - how it went!

The Vision Day on Saturday 8th October went really well - thank you to everyone who prayed for the day. Around 20 people came to hear what has been happening over the last 18 months and to think ahead to the future.

Some of the areas we will be looking to develop further are:
  • Building life skills so that young people can fulfil their potential.
  • Increased emphasis on theological trainingnot just pastors but also for Sunday school teachers and other church leaders
  • Sustainable micro-enterprise projects by supplying widows more quickly with pigs rather than them having to wait to receive one
