DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE – Sowing Seeds of Justice for
Women and Girls in Nigeria
“Doubly poor are those women who endure situations of exclusion,
mistreatment, and violence, since they are frequently less able to defend their rights. Even so, we constantly witness among them impressive examples of daily heroism in defending and protecting their vulnerable families. – Pope Francis, The Joy of the Gospel, 212.
Supporting women and girls is a priority for DEVELOPMENT AND
PEACE. When 276 girls were kidnapped by Boko Haram from Chibok
in Nigeria, our local Nigerian partner began working for their freedom,
and has managed to smuggle three girls to safety. “The three girls, who
were 17, 18, and 19 years old, still seemed to be under the effect of the
swirl of emotions generated by the trials they experienced since their
abduction,” states Raphael Yimga Tatchi, DEVELOPMENT AND
PEACE program officer for Nigeria. “Their voices and lost eyes betray
deep pain… glimmers of humanity shine through only when they courageously recount the details of their escape.” The Share Lent collection for DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE is on the Fifth Sunday of
Lent, March 22nd.
FLOWERS FOR EASTER
This year we would once again like to ask for
donations toward the purchase of flowers. These
flowers will decorate the sanctuary through Easter
as well as throughout the year. If you would like
to participate, please place your donation in an
envelope clearly marked “EASTER FLOWERS”,
(please make all cheques payable to Christ the
King). This envelope can be dropped in the
collection basket.
This year we are once again asking that the
flowers be left at the church. To help keep the
sanctuary beautiful for the full 50 days and
throughout the year, not all the flowers will be
purchased at once. If you have any questions,
please call the parish office at 306- 586-9020.
Donations will be accepted from now through to
the Feast of Pentecost.
