Community Health Evangelism training

9 communities along Lake Tanganyika were represented, 4 tribal african languages(Bemba, Mambwe, Lungu, Swahilli, 2 countries(Zambia and Tanzania), and 30 people differing in educational standards, health knowledge and biblical knowledge.

Our program started on Tuesday after a team member died and the funeral was on the monday. Imagine a power cut causing to oxygen compressor to switch off and your family member die! Horrible. I knew this was a possibility so borrowed a generator from town to use in case the power failed fortunately it did not but my colleague died what would have been preventable in England with ICU care.
The CHE training has gone well, we hope to follow up again in a few months time, with a second course.
The volunteers have been given tools to en vision and empower their community to bring change from within. Some struggled but many are going home really excited!
