Village Notes
Ida went to Bupeni and taught about God’s forgiveness, This lesson is taught to teach people how to live in harmony. When people have grudges they can’t come together and that hinders development. Ida asked the community that what can God forgive, Is there anything that God cannot forgive and how are we forgiven? Ida asked Bwana to read from 2nd Chronicles 33, John 8:1-11 After the reading we saw that God loves forgiving so much. Nandase asked if God will forgive her husband for the sins he did, Micheal was wondering why Nandase was pleading for her husband and not a herself? Munira said that God forgives all sins as long as you ask for pardon. Most importantly is we must remember that there’s no reason for us to sin. The community was happy and encouraged each other to always keep time that no one is left behind.
