A wonderful welcome at the Adult Literacy group in Adyeda, Uganda
Whether working in education, business, or community development, one of the most important pieces of programming is monitoring and evaluation--assessing the quality, the effectiveness, and efficiency of work that is being done in the community. In March we had the blessing of taking part in the three year evaluation of the partnership between the Diocese of Lango and CRWRC. Through this evaluation we took a deep look at the planning, implementation and monitoring of the programs funded by CRWRC in the Diocese of Lango. We also reflected on how CRWRC can better support the Diocese of Lango as they implement programs in their community.
We spent three days meeting with administration and talking with community groups in surrounding villages, discussing the strengths and the weaknesses of our work over the past 3 years in the hope of charting a better way forward. Three days of this kind of work may seem tedious, but it was necessary and incredibly helpful in assessing the way in which we are working together as stewards of our time, our money, and our abilities. This type of evaluation is not a test, but an instrument through which we can sharpen ourselves as more effective instruments in the Redeemer’s hands.

We continue to press forward in our work as God’s instruments, and through our time of evaluation and reflection we hope to move forward in unison with our partners as we serve the community in Northern Uganda together.
