Over twenty women from Sacred Heart Malual bab Parish of Rumbek Catholic Diocese on Sunday discussed their empowerment issues in the church and their families.
Parish Council of Elders’ chairlady Christina Ayen Machut told Good News Radio that women gathered to plan how to help themselves and the church.
She disclosed a plan to open a business centre in Sacred Heart’s compound to help them and their children economically.
Sacred Heart Parish Priest Fr Henry Gidudu Makuerdit called on women to actively participate and make themselves self-reliance to combat the looming poverty.
He said faith can easily reach villages, if women unite and start teaching their husbands and children the message of Christ.
The women are expected to meet next Sunday to implement their decision.
