Final Stretch: «Balance of Your Ministry» wraps up 5th module on working with Children

The fifth module of the educational and grant program «Balance of Your Ministry», dedicated to the topic «Children in the Community», took place in Lviv. Over the course of three days, participants deepened their knowledge about the needs of children and the specifics of working with them in the community. The meeting was also joined by the program's partner team — DanChurchAid and Norwegian Church Aid in Ukraine (DCA-NCA).

The training in the «Balance of Your Ministry» program is coming to an end. This week, participants completed the fifth module, which was dedicated to working with children in the community. They discussed the impact of the war, the role of adults, creating a safe environment, and providing proper support.

For many participants, working with children is part of their daily ministry, so this topic was particularly relevant. At the same time, the knowledge gained will also be useful for those who work with adults, as understanding childhood experiences helps to better see how human behavior is formed and what influences reactions in different situations.

«This is the topic that the training should start with, because it is the foundation for understanding others. You begin to understand people's behavior and what drives them in various situations. It was interesting and very useful», – shares Yanina Nosova, a project participant.

This meeting also included another important stage: final testing, based on the results of which participants will receive their project completion certificates. Ahead lies the final retrospective, where we will summarize the path taken and share the results of the program.

The «Balance of Your Ministry» project is implemented in partnership with DanChurchAid and Norwegian Church Aid in Ukraine, with funding from Norad.
