Notes
Harriet had planned to meet participants in Budumba and guide them to select a committee among themselves that will coordinate the Healthy and Safe kitchen program. She found very few people at the meeting and later other people also joined. Harriet asked them to review the previous lesson. People who were around were able to review unfortunately there were also other members who were not there in the previous meeting were being left behind because they did not know what Harriet taught the community before. Harriet wondered whether to continue with what she had planned to with community or to reteach the previous lesson. Some people proposed that we continue and leave those who were absent behind. However one man called Opolot challenged the group and said that “if we continue and leave those people who have just joined we wouldn’t have acted Christ like” he gave an example of the Bible story of the one sheep that got lost and the shepherd left 99 sheep to look for one which had got lost. He also said that since this is the second lesson let them be repeated for however if any one else misses there is no repeating of the lesson. This was very interesting for some members to feel for others and Harriet encouraged them to keep that spirit of loving each and the lord will continue blessing them in so many ways. Harriet explained to them again the goals and objectives of the Healthy and Safe kitchen program and this time it more of community centered. The people who were present taught others what Harriet taught them before. It Was also encouraging to see a community healthy worker who w Owns a drug shop in the village also promising to work hand in hand with them to fight challenges caused by poor cooking conditions.
