Addis Ababa, 08 August, 2022 / 8:36 pm (ACI Africa).
The Catholic Pontifical and charity foundation, Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) International, is running a donation appeal to support catechesis and distribution of Bibles in Ethiopia in order to boost evangelization efforts in the Horn of Africa country.
In the appeal announced on August 2, ACN expresses a desire to support Priests of the Order of the Imitation of Christ (OIC) who have devoted themselves to their Biblical apostolate in Ethiopia and the training of Catechists in the African country.
The charity fund is seeking 6,600 Euros to support the Priests especially in the translation of the Holy Bible into local languages and the production of copies of the Holy Book to be distributed to families.
ACN reports, in reference to the members of OIC in Ethiopia, “The Fathers ask us for help, because every family that has just found the Catholic faith should be given a copy of the Holy Scriptures.”
“In addition, the friars want to publish the catechism in two local languages. Aid to the Church in Need would like to support this valuable apostolate with 6,600 Euros,” the charity foundation, which reaches out to the Church in difficult situations has reported.
