On Sunday 3rd March,2019, while addressing the youths from St Peter’s Nyakishojwa Parish, Reverend Father Robert Ayebazibwe, Curate Priest Rubindi parish in Mbarara ArchDioces said human beings are meant to live this earthly life and later on after death there waits another life (eternal life) which by the virtue of their souls they must live.
Fr Robert asked the youths to confess their sins and reconcile with the God in the forthcoming lent period to prepare for the life to come.
“The youths are the pillars of the church and therefore you should reconcile with your God and keep your faith because if you do not your children shall ask you about your church and you will fail to grow them in a spiritual manner,” Fr Robert said.
The youths under their umbrella; Nyakishojwa Kampala centre were attending a friendly match at Old Kampala SS playground between Buharambo and Nyakishojwa zones the sister zones from same parish.
Between the lines…….
“Lent season is the time when Christians sacrifice theirselves to their God through prayers and fasting emulating Jesus Christ who spent Forty days in the garden of Gatethman to redeem the hearts of men. In this period, Christians engage in charitable works such as feeding the hungry, praying for the sick, helping the needy to mention but a few. This year’s lent begins today Wednesday 6th March, and shall go up to Saturday 20th March, 2019 on Easter Sunday Vigil,” Zenit News Agency published.
