Healing and Reconciliation Program

Healing is an integral part of promoting a sustainable reconciliation process. It all begins with one acknowledging that they are wounded. This mainly is a result of broken relationships or injustice. An important step is leading to God, the ‘doctor’ of all ages. True healing results from one enduring the painful procedure of wound debridement and cleaning.

Once all the dead tissue (bitterness, resentment, desire for revenge, sinful responses to pain) are removed, healing is steady. Healed hearts advance the genuine relationship and therefore sustainable reconciliation. To do this, we use an approach called HHTN (Healing Hearts, Transforming Nations), formerly known as HWEC – Healing wounds of Ethnic Conflict. Developed in Rwanda in 1996, it became a perfect resource to aid in the recovery of trauma laden Post Genocide Rwanda. The approach would come in handy during the Kenyan post poll chaos of 2007/08, the worst interethnic conflict in Kenya’s post independence era. In the conflict, an estimated 1300 lost their lives with over half a million displacements. Millions USD worth of property was destroyed. 

Our Healing & Reconciliation program was timely and through the Anglican church Provincial Mother’s Union, through support of Tearfund, we started to attend to victims of the clashes. We have reached to an approximated —– people since 2008, and trained over —– to be facilitators of healing to others.

We disseminate the teachings through 3 day workshop seminars but also repackage the principles into formats such as music (Father’s Heart Music)  and videos (Shadows: A step into the Light). We enrich the the region and the globe through our East African School of Reconciliation – where we have helped establish teams of reconciliation in South Sudan, Ethiopia, Burundi, DRC, West Africa & others. All this has been done in partnership with churches, county governments, parachurch institutions & NGOs – TF UK, WR-K, PRN, Resonate Global, Rabagirana, etc.

Member Care

Every functioning ‘machine’ requires regular servicing and maintenance. Ministry workers, just like workers in other fields, need regular time off to reflect and re-energize. This promotes uninterrupted productivity while maintaining the well-being of the worker at the same time. In this program, we provide our clients with a safe space to process their life’s experiences, aiming at pouring out the bad out of their hearts and finding renewal.

This program uses a debriefing curriculum called “Emmaus Walk” (Visit the Resources page for more on this curriculum). In the 3-day debriefing retreat, our clients have life-changing experiences; whereby most have not only experienced physical healing particularly due to stress related illness, but have also been able to walk out of life’s destructive habits. This has helped them to refocus and return to full productivity (See Blog page for Testimonies). This is not a program for others but specifically tailor-made for you!

Please visit our Events page to book a place not only for you but also your team.

Fees may slightly differ depending on the time of application.

Community Development

Communities develop meaningful relationships when they are actively involved in a common community agenda. The gains become so binding that they are able to resist and overcome the many diving forces around them. We use Bible-based models such as Christian Community Transformation (LRM) and CCMP (Church Community Mobilization Process) among others. Youth is a key consideration since they are a workforce that can bring about major gains or destruction depending on where their energies, prowess, and skills are channeled.
