The study recommendations were that, the Catholic Church should make social community centres active as they were before. The Catholic Church should ensure that pastoral letters are written by the research social centres as it was before in-order to reflect things on ground. The Catholic Church should increase her efforts in molding the youth group in order to be more active in social issues than today. It was also recommended that for other scholars need to invest in researching the stand of the Catholic Church on social credit doctrine.
The study therefore concluded that the Catholic Church is shaping social leadership development in Tanzania through her teachings, her established centres and other services. The study revealed that the Church has been active in education from the beginning of its establishment. It was also recorded that Mission stations were always for human improvement for the surrounding population.
