NEMBU GIRLS

On 13th of October, the AYES Team was invited to give a talk to Form Four Students of Nembu Girls who were preparing for the exam and life after school. We covered topics such us College and University life, Dating and Sex, Responsible Freedom and discovering one's Personal Life Center. At the end of the whole day sessions, some of the girls wrote about their experience on our Gratitude Book.

STATEHOUSE GIRLS

The Girls with Dominique George
Over the past five weeks, AYES has been having Personal Leadership Sessions at Statehouse Girls Nairobi every Sunday afternoon. The Topics covered ranged from Self Awareness, time management, Living purposeful lives, Relationships with each other, parents, dating and sex to Social-Emotional-Physical-Mental Fitness or the 4D Renewal. The students highly appreciated the sessions.
With the Youth Chaplain
Dominique George, the Personal Leadership Speaker and Archdiocesan Programs Coordinator was with them throughout the five sessions. The Archdiocesan Youth Chaplain, Fr. Edwin Hunja, made sure that he was there every Sunday, even though for a few moments, despite his heavy schedule.
With Dominique George
Colette Inviolata, the leader of the group had this to say, 'Wow! The sessions were exquisite, just perfect for a confused teenager to draw essential life-skills from. I'll forever miss the sessions, for you've truly left a mark in me and in all the students who attended the sessions that cannot be erased by any force but death. May the Lord God guide you in your path of enlightening young people'

Laureen Janet said, 'Words don't describe everything and many have said it. The amount of gratitude as enormous as it is, can't be quantified. You are a blessing to many including me. A great inspiration and an amazing teacher. What I have learned should definitely make me change the world in my own way. God bless you abundantly  and may the Blessed Virgin Mary watch over you always! Thank you!
These are but some of the many comments the students wrote on our gratitude book. From the Archdiocesan Youth Educational Services, we feel doubly blessed and want to thank the students since we also learned a lot from them. The lessons and fond memories will remain forever. May God bless you all with His Choicest Blessings.
