Part 1
Our motto is: "Lower cancer and never cancer"
A long march, praises and fervent prayers marked the last Sunday of October.
This is how we are ending the Pink October - fighting breast cancer together with the Seventh-day Adventist Church's Women's Ministry.
On this day the Angolan population woke up surprised by our movement on the road.
We went to the road with a long march where dozens of women and girls including some male representatives took part in this initiative.
Every year thousands of women become fatal victims of breast cancer. We are losing our families, friends, sisters and neighbors due to this malignant tumor.
Especially the poorer women who only discover the disease in the final stage due to the lack of financial resources to consult a good hospital with good specialists who can diagnose the disease on time.
We mobilized hundreds or even thousands of people who came across us on the street.
Breast cancer is a very serious disease that needs to be fought. We encourage women to regularly consult a doctor for the early diagnosis of cancer. Reasons why we are here in the fight against breast cancer.
Interview with the district director of the Ministry of Women.
Good morning sister!
Please introduce yourself and tell us a little about this program.
Good morning my dear sister!
My name is Ana Victorino Paulino, director of the Women's Ministry of the popular neighborhood district!
As you can see here all women in uniform, we organized this march to raise awareness about breast cancer and uterine cancer. We marched from the 1st of May region to the Santa Ana de Luanda wake.
One of the main reasons for this march is to be able to rescue many women who are being affected and oppressed by breast cancer and cannot get rid of them alone.
When they see the population or a group of women stunned, they will feel motivated to fight.
We have prepared special messages for many women to wake up and do the consultation and control of breast or uterine cancer. We are in the church not only to worship God but also to be able to rescue souls, doing social work and also working with the state.
This is the reason for the participation of these women to be able to manifest and fight cancer.
Our motto is: "Lower cancer and never cancer".
We know that with divine power we will overcome cancer. The local police support us and accompany us to the point of arrival.
We managed to reach a good part of the population of Luanda and we saw the satisfaction on the faces of many who appreciated us along the way.
So thank you very much, we have the feeling of mission accomplished.
And which church organized it?
This was a particular initiative of one of the districts of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (District Popular Neighborhood).
October 30th: Never cancer, and that's how we ended the month.
OK thank you.
Thank you, kisses.
In Africa, breast cancer kills more women over age 40 than HIV/AIDS & Malaria Combined. Unfortunately, there is no basic awareness about breast cancer in Africa.
The sequel follows...
