The Lifewater team comprising Caleb and Stephen, joined by Rita in Kigali, started the journey on Monday 8/08/22, travelled the whole day and we all arrived well to our destinations in Rwanda.
It was more than two years since the team visited Rwanda for a Lifewater exercise. This was due to political tensions between Rwanda and Uganda, and then Covid-19 that paralyzed movements in many nations. However, after much prayer, the Uganda and Rwanda relationship has improved. People are crossing borders without any resistance. We really thank God for the renewed peace.
The AYA team in Ahakabale, Kayonza District, was given reconditioning project training, explaining about new practices in Lifewater Village project monitoring:
- Refreshing them about regular monitoring; the need to monitor, filling monitoring forms and reports, and financial logistics involved.
- Introducing the Reconditioning Project to them; helping them to understand how it is a blessing to their village; how to carry it out and the period it takes; also, how to make monitoring reports and, finally, understanding financial appreciation given to AYA members for reconditioning monitoring.
- Caleb meeting the key AYA youth leaders in Kayonza District, talking to them about new methods of handling and reporting the progress of the AYA programme.
