IN THE FACE OF COVID-19: Testimonies from around the world” PLAY VIDEO Many project partners of Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) living in countries where Christians are suffering from discrimination or violence, such as Nigeria, Chad, Morocco, Sri Lanka or Burkina Faso, or in which the Coronavirus pandemic has made the prevailing economic difficulties only more acute, such as Ecuador, Venezuela or Ukraine, are braving the odds to continue providing pastoral and humanitarian support to the people entrusted to their care. In recent days, we have received testimonies from these project partners expressing faith and courage in the face of this pandemic. Touching expressions from our brothers and sisters on the frontline:
“Our prayers go out to all God’s people who are living through this time of pain and uncertainty, to you who, with your support, are helping us to make so many dreams come true that contribute to the well-being of the people in our care.” ACN Project Partner 6

“My ministry consists in visiting the sick in the hospital as well as the elderly at home. We pray together. I seek to bring them comfort. I listen to them. In this time of crisis, I bring soap to families, and I give them hope that they will recover. I visit all the sick, Christians and non-Christians.” Sr Marguerite Valea, SAB (Sœurs de l’Annonciation de Bobo)
