Thirteen selected families, who often face hardships due to poverty and food scarcity, especially during off-seasons, received goats as part of this program. The District Women’s Fellowship Leader and her team led the distribution and provided guidance on goat rearing, equipping each family with the knowledge to make the most of this gift.

Expressing her gratitude, Sirjana Majhi shared, “I am very happy and thankful to the church for their concern and for giving us a goat as a gift. I will rear this goat as instructed and make it a source of income for my essential needs.”

Similarly, Khadagmaya Pulami Magar conveyed her joy, saying, “I am truly happy and thankful for your gift. I was unemployed, and you have given me a means to earn by providing this goat. I will rear it very well and multiply its number so I can help others too.”

Through meaningful initiatives like this, Believers Eastern Church continues its mission to uplift marginalized communities and empower individuals to overcome poverty and build sustainable livelihoods.
