Student's day

Recently, while schools were closed, the Voice of Hope project held their first Student’s day. The day was an opportunity for all children of VOH families who were 13 or older to gather for their own day of learning and enjoying each other’s company. More than 50 students took part in the day where the opening discussion was on Covid effects, and life challenges. The main focus of the day was a presentation on biblical views on sexuality and sexual relations. The students were split by gender and Everlyne presented her teaching on female reproduction, healthy hygiene practices, Godly womanhood and a quick self defence class. All the girls received a hygiene pack.

Meanwhile the young men were moved to another space where Aggrey spoke with them about puberty, healthy hygiene practices, Godly manhood and a boy’s understanding of menstruation. When they gathered back together several of the post secondary students spoke to their younger friends about taking their education seriously. The students all pledged to honor God with their bodies as laid out in 1 Corinthians 6. The day was a great success and the students are hoping there will be more days for them to gather and learn together about topics that are not addressed in their school life or in conversation with their parents or grand parents.
