How we work
IRCU’s work is rooted in its philosophy, which is the motivation to provide services to the people. Our work therefore, is a response to the divine calling to provide for the needy and the vulnerable. This spiritual motivation compels IRCU to reach out even to the remotest parts of the country.
IRCU boasts of established leadership at all levels and religious leaders for that matter enjoy a big following and are influential in shaping people’s attitudes, spiritual and moral wellbeing. IRCU has therefore engaged religious leaders in efforts to integrate the intervention in its core program, areas in their day-to-day pastoral and spiritual work among people.
IRCU Approach to Service Delivery
IRCU uses a faith approach (FA) in its effort to provide services to the people of God. The FA is rooted in the Holy Scriptures, which is the record of God’s divine intervention in the history and life of his people. Both Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions attribute the genesis of humanity and the entire creation to the One Almighty God (Allah) who establishes a special relationship of love with his people
(Genesis 2:9; Qur’an At-Tin: 4).
IRCU operationalizes this essential faith pillar through the use and application of religious teachings, practices, leadership and structures to deliver vital services to the target groups at all levels. The faith approach recognizes that people are created with inner power and free will to know what is good or bad.
Teaching through scriptures and scientific knowledge enhances individual power and creates skills to recognize the struggle against temptation in order to remain safe from HIV infection, exploitation, crime and other forms of abuse.
