My name is Joynes Komugisha Daniel and I am a women of 23 years. I live with my family, and I am a first born. I come from Tanzania, in North Western Diocese .I´m very happy to share a little about myself and my journey. I am passionate about learning and personal growth.

Currently I am involved in church and parish life, where I serve as Evangelist.

I graduated from school and after that I joined an Evangelism course for two years, and I became an Evangelist. Currently I am involved in church and parish life, where I serve as Evangelist. Through these activites it has helped me grow in spiritually and understanding other peoples culture and different ways of life.

Being part of these program is a great opportunity for me, It has allows me to experience a new culture, meet with new people and grow both personally and spiritually, Through the activity of involving me in the church I was blessed with the opportunity to travel to Sweden with the support of church youth program. This journey has been a life changing experience. Even while in Sweden I carry my roots with me.                                      

These experiences has helped me to build confidence, improve communication skills and understand the importance of serving others.

Through these programs of Youth in Sweden we are staying in different parishes but I would like to say what I have seen in my first parish. It has been a meaningful experience, I have felt welcomed, and I am learning many new things every day such as Church choir, concert and cooperation, people staying together in church to Meditation. In Årsta church teaching young people in practical Education. I am enjoying connecting with others sharing experiences and learning how the church operates in different contexts. These experiences has helped me to build confidence, improve communication skills and understand the importance of serving others. I hope to continue learning about new things during these programs.             

I believe that this journey will build me great strength and experience in church service and my life in general. I would like to give thanks to all people who are focusing with these program of Youth.
