The Society held a successful advanced trauma healing training for 21 participants on March 14^th to 18^th 2022.

The trauma healing programme is designed to bring healing and hope to people who have gone through traumatic circumstances. In this training, facilitators were equipped with knowledge and skills to help other people who have experienced trauma in their lives. The Master trainer, Mrs. Gueneba Bakiono from Burkina Faso appreciated all the participants for their active participation in all sessions.

The Guest of Honor, Mr. Isaac Litali while addressing the graduands noted that they need to have the calling, passion, and compassion to be effective in trauma healing. He also emphasized that they need to be strong and avoid being pulled into other people’s trauma. The General Secretary Mrs. Elizabeth Muriuki thanked all the participants for attending the training. She urged them to bear the mission and vision of the Bible Society of Kenya as they explore their newfound skills.

On the last day of training, the facilitators graduated and were commissioned to utilize the skills learned to serve their communities.

We received heart-warming testimonies from the participants on how they had benefited from the training. Rev. Lazaro testified of how his blood pressure was high when he began the sessions but reduced through the sessions as he was able to deal with stress issues.

Lucy Muthoni said that she was able to release people she was holding in her heart that were against her and her husband. They are a couple from two different communities who caused discord and even hindered them from conducting trauma healing groups as they should. We are glad that these and more participants received healing and we hope that many people will find hope in God’s word.
