On World Mission Sunday 2021, we were inspired by women reaching out across religious divides to heal their community. The Women’s Interfaith Council (WIC) in Kaduna, northern Nigeria is an initiative supported by Missio, which brings women of different faiths together.
The WIC works to counter the effects of escalating violence in the community. Sr Veronica and her team visit survivors of attacks, providing them with personal support and organising further skills training for other women and young people. It also offers support through a community, ensuring that women of all religions unite and celebrate important holidays together.
Since World Mission Sunday 2021, the WIC has gone from strength to strength, including winning a prestigious peace award. Read more about the inspiring WIC in articles below.
