A Crucible of Compassion: The AOSK-CCCK Reflective Meeting


Share

From February 17th to 23rd, 2025, 35 dedicated religious leaders gathered at Subiaco Retreat Centre for a transformative week-long reflective meeting. This was more than just a retreat—it was a strategic investment in the future of child care reform.

Imagine 35 committed individuals—sisters, priests, and brothers—united by a shared mission: to deepen their knowledge, refine their skills, and strengthen their commitment to vulnerable children.

📊 The Numbers Speak Volumes:

🔸 18 sisters & 2 priests pursuing Social Work degrees.
🔸 6 sisters undertaking diploma programs in child welfare.
🔸 8 individuals enrolled in Integrative Spiritual Counselling.

This isn’t just academic growth—it’s a testament to their commitment to improving the lives of children.

Blending Knowledge, Faith & Technology

AOSK-CCCK understands that true transformation requires more than textbooks. The reflective meeting combined:

Academic rigor – Scholars delved into research, policy, and advocacy strategies.
💡 Digital skills training – Enhancing their ability to leverage online resources for child welfare.
🙏 Spiritual alignment – Connecting faith and purpose to social work.

At the core of this gathering was deep self-reflection. Participants explored their personal mission, understanding how social work and spiritual care intertwine to provide holistic child protection.

Building a Legacy of Compassion

AOSK-CCCK is not just educating individuals—they’re creating a ripple effect. By empowering religious leaders, they are ensuring that vulnerable children across Kenya receive the care, love, and stability they deserve.

The success of this pre-academic meeting shines as a beacon of hope, illuminating the path toward a brighter future for Kenya’s children. As these scholars embark on their academic journeys, they carry seeds of change, ready to transform lives and build a legacy of compassion.
