ACK diocese of Butere bishop Rose Okeno has launched a poultry rearing program for the single mothers in the diocese.
Four incubators for poultry rearing were unveiled during the launch on Tuesday morning July 16, 2024, at St. Luke’s Cathedral Butere and are expected to serve the single mothers in the sub-counties of Butere and Khwisero.
Speaking after the launch, Rt. Rev. Okeno said the program is aimed at empowering single mothers to have self-confidence and uplift their lives.
“We have had over six sessions with single mothers leading them to the knowledge of Christ and self-awareness and helping them have confidence in the presence of God,” said the bishop.
Rt. Rev. Okeno said the initiative is one of the diocesan core responsibilities of leading people to Christ regardless of their social status.
She encouraged the pioneers of this program under the women’s ministry to grow it back in their churches and the community at large to reach many single mothers in need.
