Our main activities at the centre focus on bringing community stake-holders, opinion leaders, church leaders, politicians and administrative personnel together to better serve the community at large. We also see the building and grounds being used as a central meeting place for groups, eg. women, people living with HIV AIDs, drug addicts support trainings. Also celebrations, weddings, retreat days, Youth talent shows etc.
