Marie Seenan, one of our Parish volunteers, told us how valuable she found our film, Dignity.

She said:

"As named Parish Contact for St. Vincent de Paul Parish East Kilbride, I have greatly valued the wealth of resources available on SCIAF’s website to support me in promoting their work.

"We have also greatly benefited from visits by Community Engagement Officers, Jenna and Michael and from Mark Booker, Engagement and Education Manager.

"One such visit, during this year’s Lenten Campaign was from Michael Hamilton who visited our Parish to deliver a WEE BOX workshop and to show a screening of SCIAF's "Dignity" documentary. The documentary showcases the charity’s work in Zambia, highlighting their focus on dignity through various initiatives.

"An added feature was music by Ricky Ross of Deacon Blue, a long-time SCIAF supporter, and aims to inspire viewers to support SCIAF’s work.

"The documentary successfully demonstrated the positive impact of SCIAF's work on individuals and communities, emphasising their commitment to upholding human dignity. Feedback from parishioners who attended the screening of the documentary, described it as inspiring and heart-warming, effectively conveying the importance of SCIAF's mission and the dignity of the people they serve.

"I would certainly encourage as many parishes as possible to provide an opportunity for their parishioners to view this documentary. It certainly had an impact on our Parishioners and inspired us to continue praying for and supporting the work of SCIAF in our Parish."
