Sudan is currently facing one of the most severe and under-recognized humanitarian crises in the world. Pax Christi International invites all of to take time on April 11 to pray, to raise awareness, and to take meaningful action for peace, justice, and healing in Sudan. #LightingTheWaySudan
April 11: World day of prayer peace in Sudan
From Pax Christi International: Sudan is currently facing one of the most severe and under-recognised humanitarian crises in the world. Since April 2023, the war between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has plunged the country into devastation. This conflict has led to mass displacement, economic collapse, widespread hunger, and the breakdown of healthcare and education systems.
