PORT HARCOURT

262.500 EURO

Current status: The diocese of Port Harcourt has a population of about 6 million people, of which just over a million are Catholics (19.1%). The diocesan area is 10,500 km². There are only few Catholics in an immense area and that makes pastoral activities very complex. The bishop has already appointed a priest director and has made a building available to Radio Maria, for its studios.

Project: Radio Maria in Port Harcourt will help bring the Word of God daily to the Catholic faithful who live far from the parishes, that even priests are struggling to reach, because of the lack of or inadequacy of road infrastructure. Of course, the light of the Gospel through Radio Maria will also bring light to the faithful of other Christian denominations, to Muslims, animists, etc… we have a license, and the priest has already been appointed, but we still lack everything else that is needed to fully implement the project: refurbishment of the offices, purchase and shipment of technical equipment and a forecast of the initial costs. In total, 262,500 Euros.
