This day was full of blessing to the youth of St. Makarios for all the vicarage youths were meeting in their parish. His grace bishop Athanasios together with the priests and deacon did the liturgy there. It was a greet blessing to the youth and the entire congregation.
After the Divine Liturgy, his grace gave a powerful sermon encouraging the youth to love God and the church .Also told them that they should serve God in truth for religion cannot take a person to the kingdom of God but only faith in God. If you die before you die you will not die when you die .This means that we should put our lives to God now so that when our day to die comes, our souls will not die.
After that he proceeded to Butali for an outreach mission led by Dr. Joseph Black , Mr. James Mukuria and Rev.fr. Agapios Lipesa .There is an orphanage and a new church in the area .His Grace visited the children’s home, the proposed plot for the orphanage project and later attended the outreach evangelism.
We pray to God to guide our bishop in his mission work and grant him many years of service.
