Notes
Ida went to Budhumba to introduce the program to the community. First the chairperson moved with Ida in few homes (7) then went under a big mango tree where meetings always take place. The community has been waiting for this program since last year. They were very happy to receive us and are ready to learn. Ida thanked the community for having worked with the previous programs positively. She told the community what to expect from Health and Spiritual program. Ida told the community that Kibo has a trained nurse who will be dealing with health issues but will not treat but educate. The chairperson asked the community to choose one day out of the three given. The community chose Wednesday as the best. Time they all agreed that 1:00 o’clock lessons begin. The venue remains the same. After all the discussion,the chairperson closed the meeting with a prayer and everyone left.
