Recently we had our third teacher training workshop at NMS and we had the privilege of inviting our friend Dickson (from Lira, north Uganda). He spoke brilliantly on Resolving Conflict at school and I am certain that many of the teachers went away changed people! We were also able to invite other strategic teachers from schools in Ibanda, so it was fantastic for NMS to host this event.
Dickson also spoke with each of the classes at NMS and the pupils really engaged with him. Conflict Resolution is definitely a vital topic for these pupils to hear and in fact we are already seeing some of the fruits of his work, with pupils being much more ready to forgive each other etc. We maximised the chance of having such an amazing man of God with us and even got Dickson to preach at both of the Sunday services at St.Paul's church, Ibanda - all round a great weekend!
