Summary

SummaryI’m Tirham, and in 2021 I left my home in Nigeria to travel to Burkina Faso, where extremist violence has orphaned many widows. 😢 Over a week, I led an audio-driven trauma healing workshop—exploring lamentations in Scripture, teaching forgiveness, and guiding a cross ceremony to bring their pain before God. 🌿 By Tuesday tears began to flow, and by the next morning laughter and shining faces told of God’s miraculous work. 🙌 Please pray for these women and for local caregivers to be trained to continue healing this vast need.

In 2021, trauma care trainer Tirham* travelled from Nigeria to run a week-long trauma workshop for widows from Burkina Faso, where extremist violence is taking its toll on Christians.
