The Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ) extends heartfelt greetings to all Christian faithful on the occasion of Ash Wednesday, a solemn day that marks the beginning of the Lenten season.
As a time of reflection, repentance, and spiritual renewal, NAWOJ encourages Christians to use this period to strengthen their faith, embrace humility, and foster love, peace, and unity in their communities.
The Lenten season reminds us of the virtues of sacrifice, self-discipline, and compassion, values that are essential in nation-building and promoting social harmony.
Niger NAWOJ also calls on Nigerians to use this sacred period to pray for peace, justice, and progress in our country, while upholding ethical values that contribute to a just and equitable society.
May this Ash Wednesday inspire us all to walk in kindness, forgiveness, and unwavering faith.
