Muslim and Catholic communities began the period of Ramadan and Lent simultaneously on Wednesday, 18 February. At the Sacred Heart Parish in Abobo Anador, within the Archdiocese of Abidjan, this spiritual coincidence was marked early Wednesday evening by a collective breaking of the fast in an atmosphere of fraternity, reflection, and conviviality. Prayers were offered for peace, unity, and social cohesion in Côte d’Ivoire.
