When people hear Angola they think of oil and diamonds, beautiful beaches, desert, and jungle. But Angola has so much more to offer. Deeply religious people live there with dreams and hopes for a future.

Even difficult paths can be part of a divine plan as the story of Joseph shows impressively. Those who believe in God’s love learn to recognise the beginnings of new hope even in suffering and guilt.
