On May 30, 2026, the Vocational Training Center for Young People and Women of the Catholic Mission of Touroua, located in the Northern Region of CAMEROON, under the Archdiocese of Garoua, celebrated the closing of its year of formation during a ceremony rich in joy and emotion.
This beautiful celebration brought together the administrative, political and religious authorities of the locality as well as the families and relatives of the three laureates who came to share with them this important moment. Surrounded by their parents, friends and benefactors, the ‘learners’ experienced a day marked by recognition and pride in the work accomplished.
Director of the Centre, in my words of thanks, I expressed my deep gratitude to the community, the Vice-Province and the Congregation for their many forms of support in carrying out this mission, and for their trust. I also expressed my sincere thanks to the partners, trainers and authorities present for their constant support.
After presenting some difficulties that the Centre is facing, I launched an appeal to local authorities to support this work of promotion of the Girl and the Woman. This support will make it possible to offer vocational training that is increasingly tailored to the needs of beneficiaries and to improve learning conditions.
Speaking in turn, the Sub-prefect of the District of Touroua congratulated and encouraged the leader for her commitment to youth service. After learning about the realities of the Center, he promised to provide support in order to contribute to its development in the years to come.
The ceremony ended in a festive atmosphere, marked by the presentation of certificates and reports to the ‘learners’. The three laureates, happy and grateful, have given thanks to the Lord for the benefits received throughout their formation journey and for this beautiful celebration that comes to crown their efforts.
