- M.U talent week and rally.
Every year parishes hold well-coordinated Talent weeks whose activities include reaching out to the left-out people in the community like the street children, poverty stricken etc.
We also hold an annual rally and funds drive to support the running of the department as well as the projects aimed at future self-sustenance of the department.
This year we held a successful one. Thanks to God and all our guests and stakeholders who generously supported us.
We are inviting any willing donors, groups or individuals to support our course.

- Capacity building for MU Leaders.
Every year the MU Leaders are taken through seminars and training on issues related to leadership and other topical issues which are expected to cascade down to all the ladies in the Churches. The topics already addressed, among others are Mental Health and Wellness, Qualities of a good Leader, Financial Management and bookkeeping, Dealing with challenges of singlehood in women and Operation ‘‘Okoa doa’’for Young mothers.
Being the last year of the leaders term, they were prepared for a smooth exit in terms of record keeping and smooth handing over.
- M.U Clothing Business
In an effort to self-sustenance, we endeavored to start a clothing business, targeting the MU uniform, school uniform and even personal clothing.
The shop is still running and struggling to break even due to low sales of School Uniform.
We invite those of you with schools and institutions to consider us for tenders to make and supply whatever clothing and items you need. You are free to come and fit your personal outfits, Sunday school uniform, clergy shirts, clergy & lay readers robes. Visit us at our Diocesan Shop and you will not be disappointed. Our products are neat and our prices competitive.
