On 1st November 2022, Pope Francis met with over 3000 young African university students. It was a part of the Building Bridges Initiative, an initiative of Pope Francis to connect with young faith influencers. 

In this episode of the African podcast series, Sr Titilayo Aduloju chats with some members of the Nigerian cohort on what they have been doing since their encounter with the pope. The young faith influencers, who are visibly thrilled by their encounter with the pontiff, share their group and individual experiences. And while some have been planting trees, others have engaged in different training programs. Listening to the pope has also reinforced their belief in social engagement.

Listen to their experiences and, please, feel to share it to your networks
