The members of the MCSPA would like to give thanks to God, on this day of the Assumption of Our Lady, as 18 years ago Fr. Antonio Aguirre, Fr. Francis Teo and Fr. Manuel Hernández were ordained priests for the Diocese of Lodwar. They have been working for many years in Kenya especially in Turkana going to the remotest areas to bring the Good News. To date, Fr. Antonio is in Nariokotome mission, Turkana – Kenya, Fr. Francis is in Manila – Philippines and Fr. Manolo is in Benga Parish – Malawi. We give thanks for their perseverance and example in following the call to which they said YES to, some 18 years ago: “Go out and proclaim the good new to the poor”.

Yesterday on the feast of the Assumption of Our Lady, the Diocese of Lodwar celebrated the priestly ordination of Gabriel Nakamu Emuria, a member of the Apostles of Jesus at Mary Mother of God Church, Kalokol Parish, Lodwar Diocese. It was a colourful celebration presided by Rt. Rev. Dominic Kimengich, Bishop of Lodwar. Members of the MCSPA joined other Christians from all parts of Turkana in this graceful occasion. We sincerely extend our best wishes and prayer to newly ordained Fr. Gabriel Nakamu Emuria!
