Lesson Taught
Bible Lesson 4: Loving others 
Notes
Ida went to Naibowa and taught people about loving others. She used a story of a Good Samaritan which touched many people. Ida replaced the people in the good samaritan story with people in Naibowa village and while doing this, she engages the community to come up with some names during the lesson. Ida does this for them to be able to understand the lesson but also to apply these in their day to day lives.After this lesson, these people were very much touched and immediately contributed 31000 sh for the old Muslim man who attended that day. One member thanked Kibo for the lesson because it came at the right time. He encouraged his fellow members to help without expecting anything back. He continued saying that Naibowa might not have the same incident as that of a Good Samaritan but as a community there very many different ways to help those in need.for example; 1 we can help pay school fees for children who have performed well but can't continue with their studies due to lack of fees. 2 we can help mothers who have given birth, they need our help. 3 we can help dig latrines for the old people who have no one to help.etc Ida gave them papers for colouring and it was fun. The picture coloured is that of the good Samaritan story.r
