Today, Bishop Dominic Kimengich told the Christians of his Diocese to take care, help and pray for the priests in our Diocese and parishes.
This is so, because priests are always with the Christians, especially during the dificult moments in our life. They support the Christians spiritually whenever they need their help.
He also told the priests to keep the “following” in mind, in their day to day apostolates; prayer, obedience, service, availability to our Christians.
Bishop also said that the priests are a gift and they are anointed by the Holy Spirit thus they are anointed to anoint the people God.
“You are a priest for ever, a priest of the order of Melchizedek of old.”
Let us all pray for and support our priests, be at parish level, deneary level or Diocese level, as they are choosen and given as a gift to serve the people of God.
