The Chibolya Old Mosque, Zambia’s first Islamic mosque, has been reborn as a symbol of peace and harmony. Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) held a mural volunteer project in the Chibolya area of Lusaka, the capital of Zambia, delivering messages of hope and peace. This initiative marked the opening of the 1st Zambia Peace Summit, held from October 11 to 13.

The summit, co-hosted by HWPL and the local organization Family Development Initiatives (FDI), aimed to establish Zambia as a leading nation of peace. Distinguished attendees included Zambia’s Grand Mufti Asadullah Mwale, Senior Religious Officer Shikota Noanga from the Vice President’s Office, and Dr. Victor Kagoli from the Lusaka City Council. All emphasized the importance of interfaith harmony and international cooperation in building lasting peace.

Over 50 participants, including leaders from six different religions, youth volunteers, and local residents, took part in the mural project. They decorated the mosque’s outer walls with themes of “interfaith harmony,” “youth participation,” and “community unity.” The mural became more than an artwork—it stood as a living symbol of different faiths coming together to create peace.

Chibolya, often associated with crime and youth drug abuse, has long struggled with negative perceptions. HWPL chose this very place to transform it from a “symbol of conflict” into a “beacon of peace.” Through the mural work, the community found new opportunities for understanding, cooperation, and hope.

Volunteers shared that the activity went beyond art—it built trust between religions and empowered youth as agents of peace. One participant said, “By painting together, we learned to respect each other’s faith and culture.” The experience inspired young people in Chibolya to realize that peace begins with themselves.

Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) and the Christian Council of Pakistan (CCP) held a joint “2025 Flood Relief Activity” on September 1 in Swabi Jaddon Valley, Pakistan. Under the slogan “Let’s join hands and serve humanity,” the event aimed to support residents affected by the devastating floods. Beyond material aid, the initiative carried a heartfelt message of peace, hope, and solidarity.

According to the Pakistani government, the floods claimed around 1,500 lives and left more than 2.5 million people displaced. Thousands of homes and farmlands were destroyed, and in remote areas like Swabi Jaddon Valley, delayed government aid worsened the tragedy. Entire families were lost — one family lost 13 members, another 8 — leaving the community in deep sorrow.

The relief event brought together 25 HWPL volunteers, 10 local supporters, CCP representatives, church leaders, and local residents. They distributed blankets, flour, cooking oil, milk, tea, and other essential supplies to affected families. Residents expressed heartfelt gratitude, saying the support gave them hope to start anew.

The head of HWPL Pakistan stated, “Helping our neighbors in times of crisis is a fundamental human duty and the starting point of peace.” He emphasized HWPL’s ongoing commitment to humanitarian work in over 90 countries worldwide. This relief activity, too, was recognized as a meaningful act of life-saving solidarity.

CCP representative Kamran Michael shared, “This activity was more than just relief—it was a gesture of hope.” He emphasized that the effort sent a message to isolated communities: “You are not alone.” Their compassionate work continues to inspire unity and hope across Pakistan and beyond.

Building on this relief activity, HWPL and CCP plan to launch long-term projects to help rebuild local communities. They are also working with educational authorities to integrate peace education into public curricula and provide learning opportunities for marginalized groups. Through such initiatives, they continue to cultivate a culture of peace that transcends borders and differences.

Even the smallest act of kindness can spark great change. Just as a single blood donation can save three lives, the compassion shown by HWPL and CCP has become a beacon of hope amid despair. This relief activity will be remembered as a symbol of true global solidarity for peace.
