Notes
Diana went to Nawandyo B to continue with the lesson of chores and responsibilities. Diana got a few people, this is because they were still mourning the Chairman’s mother who passed on last week. The chairman welcomed Diana, and thanked her on behalf of the community for not giving up on them and also for the emotional support. Diana told the chairman and the community that, what happened is normal it can happen to any one. They just have to put their confidence and trust in God. He will strengthen everyone one who puts his or her hope on him. Diana encouraged them to love one and be there for their families. Let this be the time for helping one another. She told them that, Kibo also as an organization mourns with them. It also shares in their pain. Diana went a head to teach the lesson of the day, which was the continuation of chores and responsibilities. She told them that children are a special gift from God, therefore they need to be gifted too, by encouraging them to do chores which will benefit them and their families in future. She told them to train up the children the way they should go and when they grow they will not depart from those ways, like the book of proverbs 22:6 says. Ecclesiastes says, there is nothing better than for a man to find enjoyment in his work. Diana told them that they should make the children love chores, even when they feel like giving up, they should keep encouraging their children. They should do this according to their age group. Like the 2 year old does different chores as compared to the 5 and 8 years old. Diana thanked them for their time. Khamadi the secretary thanked Diana for bringing up that lesson. Because parents in their community used to leave the children behind instead of going with them to the garden or assigning them with work at home. He told Diana to thank Kibo for them. Because they have greatly benefited. He told the community to keep time and put on masks on their next visit.
