Welcome home.
One family of faith across Sokoto, Zamfara and Kebbi States — gathered around the Eucharist, serving our neighbours, and proclaiming that God is Love.
“For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting.”
- First Reading
- Philippians 1:18‐26
- Responsorial Psalm
- Psalm 41(42):2‐3,5
- Gospel
- Luke 14:1,7‐11
“My soul is thirsting for God, the God of my life.”
God's love for us is unconditional and all-inclusive, and it is this love which makes all things possible.
On behalf of the faithful of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, I welcome you to our home online. Feel free to learn about us, to find a parish near you, and to pray with us. I hope this website serves your needs. God bless you.
