HCW to host Journeys of Faith study group on Facebook

2/28/2018

0 Comments

 
(Click here to go directly to the  Journeys of Faith Facebook Page. The group is private and you will need to ask to join.)

Want to learn more about the global movement to transition children from residential/orphanage care to family-based care?  Please plan to participate an inspiring and informative study hosted by Helping Children Worldwide.  Through prayer, selected readings, small group activities, and discussions, this study provides a stepping stone for sharing, learning, and taking action together. The Journeys of Faith curriculum is provided by Faith to Action will equip participants with
  • a better understanding of the scope and scale of the needs of orphans and vulnerable children around the world;
  • A deeper appreciation of the opportunities and challenges surrounding ministry with orphans and vulnerable children, their families and communities;
  • An enhanced understanding of the full continuum of options for care of orphans and vulnerable children;
  • An appreciation for family-based care, including how to support it and why it is important;
  • The ability to take action that is evidence-based and informed by best practice principles.

From March 12 - April 6, HCW is facilitating an online study via private Facebook Group.  You will engage at your own pace, but you can expect participation to include about an hour of engagement every week, including watching videos, reading resources and responding to 2-3 posts.  Click here for the Journeys of Faith Facebook page, or email Laura Horvath at laurahorvath@helpingchildrenworldwide.org to sign up.

Prefer to participate in person? Stay tuned for an opportunity to attend a one-day workshop instead.

0 Comments

 
In January 2017, Rosa (The CRC Residential Counselor) started her classes to pursue a continuing education certificate from the Holy Rosary Sisters Counseling and Peace Centre. Her studies included career counseling, psycho-social counseling, and pastoral counseling. The year-long program ended in a three-week practical internship Rosa conducted at Mercy Hospital.

​"I want to thank the CRC, HCW, Beth Ratchford and the Morells for all their support in moving me to another level in the academic field. Of course I am now loaded with knowledge relating to my job and position as a counselor." Rosa's parents, a team of CRC staff, and other guests were all present at the Holy Rosary Compound for the ceremony. Certificates were presented by the Director of the Centre, Sister Okechi, and the ceremony was followed by photos and refreshments.

Dr. Carol trains Mercy maternity staff

2/28/2018

On January 31st, Dr. Carol McIntosh conducted a staff training with Sister Augusta, the maternity department, and some of the ward nurses at Mercy Hospital, using Zoom. The focus of the training was on post-partum hemorrhage and prolonged labor. Dr. Carol also explained when to refer patients to Bo government, in situations that Mercy is not equipped to handle.  This gave Mercy its first taste of telemedicine, allowing Dr. Carol to speak over the computer with the members of Mercy’s nursing department.   The Mercy staff really liked the visuals Dr. Carol was able to share with them using the Zoom teleconferencing capabilities.
