Community development
The parish is one of seventeen in the diocese, taking part in the Church and Community Mobilization Programme (CCMP). The CCMP is a Bible-based, guided training approach that a local church can use with its community to identify the resources they have, then, working together, bring about long-lasting, whole-life change. As local communities work through the process, they decide which activities will bring about the most effective and positive outcomes for them given their current situations. Rofati started the three-year programme in February 2023.
Below are pictures from May 2024, of the Rev. Canon Lyoba, Sub dean of the Cathedral, talking to the CCMP facilitators at Rofati about the feedback and outcomes from the training held from February to January 2024.
Below shows church members who have been undergoing the training and the results of the agricultural training they have put into practice.
