The things refreshed were: Sketching workshop, counselling booklets, follow up material, Roll and Report forms, sketch message “ How to be used by God” and many other things. Thank the Lord for refreshing our minds and seeing how some of the participants who were asleep will go back home to use their long forgotten method. Many of them purchased materials and promised to start conducting seminars. The seminar was not only to refresh but also to strategise the work, and plans for the work in the Province were tabled.
Thanks be to God almighty. The seminar being important, was attended by a good number more participants than we were expecting. We had 48 people attend the seminar from all over the Province.
Many other things which we discussed in the seminar were: development of the work in Zambia, 2013 region or provincial Sowers Conference, area reports etc - sure it was also a time of wonderful fellowship, knowing each other and being encouraged by what is happening in other parts of the province.
We hired a lorry to take us to Kashikishi. This lorry collected the participants from Samfya to Kashikishi. Due to many who attended, we faced a problem of lack of food. After a church service on Sunday, there was jubilation among the participants and the church members when saying goodbye to each other. Participants were delighted by the programme and wish that this type of seminar be held annually. As a Province we take this opportunity to appreciate those who prayed for this programme and supported it financially and materially. May the good Lord richly bless them all.
