Spiritual and social development: eden mission ministers to couples going through our spiritual empowerment program in the countries of uganda and democratic repubilic of congo. These families are enrolled in a discipleship program led by a team of trained pastors. The focus is on biblical marriage. The goal is to equip participants with a true gospel worldview guided by the biblical word of god. Once the marriage is on solid footing we continue programed social development focusig the training in the areas of child development parenting and community relations. Due to limited education opportunities local governments have struggled to teach basic child development principles and community wellness. As a result of our training we have heard amazing testimonies of improved parent child relationships and the reconciliations of broken marriages.
