Uganda: health training

27 October 2022

Mission partners Tom and Verity Clare in Uganda ask for prayer for a “training of trainers” event being held next week on the subject of life skills and reproductive health: “Sexual and reproductive health is an area for young people that can be prone to slip through the cracks here, with parents, schools and church at times often not informing young people appropriately for a range of reasons.” Pray for good attendance at the training and for participants as they take what they’ve learned into multiple dioceses across Uganda.
