Anne Corry reports that this year's Voices of Faith included story-telling from all over the world about what love can do, focusing especially on women as peacemakers.
The stories included a young medical doctor's life story from Rwanda, two sisters who kept their calling as teachers within the Syrian crisis, a young Australian woman who was stirred to act on behalf of Cambodian women who are trafficked, and a guardian of orphans in Burundi who says, "It's always love that takes the last word."
The event was co-hosted by the Fidel Götz Foundation, Jesuit Refugee Service, and Caritas Internationalis.
