Virtues Practices Are Life-Changing

By Bibiana Andabwa | Project Leader

Our Virtues Community groups remain active. They all participate in similar activities and all groups network with each other through regular meetings. At every meeting, they share a Virtues Pick. It is heartwarming to see and hear members as they develop personal connections through their stories about the virtues they share. They continue to practice the Five Strategies of The Virtues Project. Members say they appreciate the power of Speaking the Language of Virtues and find that this makes them unique within their residential areas. All members attest to the POWER of the Virtues Strategies, as they have experienced a true change in their individual lives.

Poultry farming is one of the community development projects that all groups are involved with to help create economic sustainability in their lives. The poultry structure project continues to be challenging as no group has managed to raise enough of the required funds. All groups are still committed to this income generating project as they have continued fundraising.

Following the signing of the MOA with Christian Partners Development Agency, Vihiga has actively joined the other community development groups that are ongoing. After the training in the Five Strategies of The Virtues Project, the Vihiga group were trained in Table Banking and joined the existing groups. On Saturday, 18th August 2018, all the groups met at Mwiyenga for a refresher, including virtues, table banking, and other activities. Guiding and training, highlighting and using Virtues Cards, is proving to be successful for all groups and impacts positively on their families.

We thank you for your charity, your giving hearts, your compassion, and your caring for others needs. With your support, we know those poultry structures will become a reality and our groups will be able to sustain themselves, their families, and eventually their communities. Through your generosity, virtues practices truly are changing lives for the better.
