To See the Human Being in the 'Other'

Pastor Enoch Aboi, MTS '18, grew up with Muslim neighbors in Nigeria’s Kaduna state. He also grew up with conflict as his country became more segregated along religious and cultural lines. At HDS, Pastor Aboi learned to embrace difference and be a more effective peacemaker. He plans now to return to Nigeria to help with the ongoing process of reconciliation.

“It doesn’t matter whether someone is Christian or Muslim. It doesn’t matter what their ethnicity is. In Nigeria, I will work to see the human being in that person, regardless of the difference, and to be able to connect with them with the respect and dignity that they deserve.”
