The Catholic
Church is known for working towards world peace and harmonious relationship.
This is a good step in the right direction. Read below as shared by
Halima:
"The kind
of embrace that is much needed especially in these days of insistent hate &
dislike. Father O'Connell, a Catholic Priest, in a tearful farewell embrace
with Shaykh Ahmad Lemu, an Islamic Cleric, in Minna.
Father
O'Connell has served in a Government Secondary School, Minna as a Principal for
50 years. He turned 80 earlier last week or so. He returns to Ireland on
retirement.
These 2 men
have between themselves, educated, positively influenced and molded many
Nigerlites, including my father & mother, among other close family &
friends.
May our lives
be that of service and usefulness to others. Amin."
