On Saturday the 26th January BCF 21 pastors graduated as fully fledged Win-Win Parenting training facilitators in the Langa township in Cape Town. A second group will graduate on the 17th of February.

These pastors are expected to train parents of over 2,000 families in Langa to raise their children to become confident self-reliant individuals. Pastors will also encourage parents to ensure their children do homework and attend school every day and remain at school until they matriculate.

It is expected that a similar impact will be made to that made in Sasolburg where the local police commander phoned to congratulate BCF on call-outs to family violence having decreased by 50% for a period of two years following the training by 71 pastors of parents in the district.

These photos show graduates receiving their certificates and photos of the training workshop.
