In 2016 the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) organised two highly successful training workshops through the Youth and Sunday School Empowerment into Worship program.

This project offers leadership training to youth leaders and Sunday School teachers in Kenya.

Previous leadership training has been targeting the church leaders in the parishes but the youth and Sunday School children have missed out.

Bishop Joseph Mutungi attended the training and awarded certificates to those who participated.

He said to those gathered, “Realise the potential in you and stir it up. We are going to empower you wherever you are going to be. We assure you all of full support in actualizing the things we want to realise. Let Sunday School, Youth and Brigade come for Christ. Our Diocese is not going to remain the same again.”

ABM is proud to support this training and empower the 150 youth leaders and Sunday School teachers who participated.

Those in the group reported that they felt equipped theologically and empowered to continue the important work of this ministry.

The content covered during the training included leadership skills and the role of children and youth in the church as well as topics like drugs and climate change.
