Notes
Introduction Manuela went to bukudomira village to about steps in making good decisions. Manuela started by asking the members questions that how many people take some times to think about what they are suppose to decide? None of them members raised up their hands that mean they don’t, then Manuela told them today they are going to study about steps in making good decisions before deciding and it’s importance. Objective By the end of the lesson, members will be able to know importance of considering the steps in making good decisions before deciding. Overview When Manuela reached the village, she went direct to the meeting place because there were four women already waiting for her, they welcomed her, she greeted them and appreciated them for keeping time, within short time other members started to come for the lessons. After that, Manuela started to teach, she taught about steps in making good decisions, she told them it’s very good to think first before deciding on anything because sometimes decisions made can result in to big problems. She taught the participants that all the steps in making good decisions for example she said you need to think first, you need to ask for advice, you need to pray, you need to accept consequences after making decisions, you need to consider family values, religious values and cultural . Manuela told them to use those steps then they always come up with good decisions which will have no regrets. She went on and encouraged men and women to come around the table and talk then come up with good decisions, she even told them to stop taking Decision by them selves they should also consult others , but they should listen to the advice given to them. She also told them to teach their children so that can decide positively. Manuela also told the parents to stop basing on false information in the community for example a man is in love with someone women , people should have evidence before deciding. Finally, she told them that they should think about their past and come up with a life story. She encouraged them to be free on that day.
