NIGERIA, Fr. Alfred Kistler. On January 20, 2003, the Schoenstatt Fathers began with the construction of a Shrine and Study Center in Ibadan, Nigeria. Thus, the first Schoenstatt Shrine in Western Africa is growing.

The beginning of the construction on Januarz 20 was a special and important moment for Nigeria, forthe development of Schoenstatt in Western Africa, and for the mission of Father Kentenich in this continent. The Schoenstatt Fathers are grateful and trust the Mother Thrice Admirable to solve the problems still pending - and there are a lot! She will speciallz have to care for the financial problems as well as for the pedagogical challenges, so that Schoenstatt can touch and form mind and heart of the African peoples.

All are invited to contribute with their capital of grace, that the Mother Thrice Admirabel may soon dwell amidst her Nigerian poeple and give abundantly the typical graces from the Shrine.
