ABOUT THE EVENT

Growing Opportunities with Nature

As part of the 8th Centenary celebrations, St. Anne’s Parish organised an Agriculture Entrepreneurship session to encourage parishioners, youth, and families to explore sustainable livelihood opportunities rooted in agriculture. The programme highlighted how innovation, value addition, and responsible stewardship of natural resources can create meaningful income while protecting God’s creation.

Participants were inspired to see agriculture not only as farming, but as an opportunity for creativity, entrepreneurship, and service to the community.
