About

For me, it's a new journey, but attending the course to become a support worker together with personal difficult experiences has opened me up to genuinely want to listen and support people with disabilities and to have compassion. Everyone needs understanding, love and support. Family is a great one. Also, in our church family, connecting with people with disabilities, praying for them, praying for one another, and helping when needed to relate more to their needs. I see very clearly the value of someone supporting or helping you in a way or another when you needed the most, so I also want to give what's needed. This great young man, Michael, who has some mild mental disability, started to share with me of his interests and hobbies. Showing me, on his tablet, all sorts of Australian rugby players, now and in the past. He even knew how to pronounce well diverse names of foreign nationalities players, hard to pronounce otherwise! Apart from that hobby, he is very much into playing bowling, whether on console or in a actual bowling place. He invited me to play with him. He taught me how to do it. He was so happy that he taught me! Then, one day, we went together with the group to the bowling place in the town! It was one of the best days for him, because he did well or very well, and I and others kept saying : "Well done! Great!" for every success. On the way back, he kept saying: "Lucian, did you see that? I did it great, had a high score, I am a master at bowling!" He enjoys also practising on the computer often.
