Catholic Church leadership in Malawi and West Africa

Overview

Catholic leaders in Malawi and West Africa are focusing on religious leadership, community empowerment, and institutional unity. In Malawi, leadership training for the Catholic Women Association emphasized using faith to address national issues like corruption and mistrust, while also stressing moral principles and financial accountability.

As the Church in Malawi marked 125 years of permanent establishment, Papal Envoy Archbishop Fortunatus Nwachukwu met with various religious associations to discuss evangelization. Discussions highlighted the need for greater collaboration between diocesan clergy and religious orders to overcome logistical challenges. Additionally, the Archbishop called for increased involvement from the laity, urging professionals and business people to use their influence to support the Church’s mission.

In West Africa, the inaugural West African Youth Day in Ghana encouraged young Catholics to promote peace and prevent violence through evangelization and social media.
