the church & early life
If you are new to Sikunye, this event will help you see the connection between the First Thousand Days (FTD) of a child’s life, what the Bible says, and the role of the local church. This is like an ‘open day’ for you to meet Sikunye team members and understand the big idea.

fatherhood in the first thousand days
Fathers play an important role in a child’s development, emotional well-being, educational achievements, and future productivity – dads do actually build the brains of their children! And this starts in the womb! This training provides male role models in the church tools to journey with fathers in the first thousand days, encouraging them in their role as dad.
