First Aid/CPR training




Everyday we encounter hundreds of children, youth and adults at our centre. It often occurs to me that the Lord really protects our kids from harm because our building is old and our children like to take risky chances. For years, I have been concerned that a child would choke at our feeding scheme, or fall from our Learning Centre loft, and we would not be equipped to save those children. Therefore, I have done a lot of research and have found a First Aid/CPR training course that will equip our staff to help in such emergency situations. The Lord provided us a donor from Germany who backed our vision of safety, and has paid to have 15 of our staff certified. We have recently hosted the First Aid/CPR training and invited representatives from other NGOs, churches, and daycares in our area to also learn how to handle emergency situations. I have so much peace knowing that we have 23 new "first responders" in our community trained and able to serve better than before.
