The Catholic Cardinal of Khartoum has called yesterday on Christians to be honest and responsible while serving the people.
Cardinal Gabriel Zubeir Wako made this call during his homily at the ordination to the priesthood of Deacon Taban David Kamerino at Torit Catholic Cathedral, Radio Emmanuel reported.
Cardinal Zubeir asked the professionals to focus on the service they are asked to render rather than in the pay they get.
Cardinal Zubeir told the people in authority that the requests from the poor for food, shelter and peace are the requests from God.
He urged parents to play their roles in caring and educating children about God.
Over 15 Bishops, 52 priests, government officials including the Governor of Eastern Equatoria State together with state minister and Members of Legislative Assembly and a large congregation of over two thousand Christians attended the ordination ceremony.
The event that many described as unique for the presence of high calibre Catholic Church leadership in Sudan and the government officials also marked the Silver Jubilee of Fr. Arkangelo Lokoro who has served 25 year in priesthood.
The Catholic Radio Network (CRN) is a media project constituted by community-based radio stations broadcasting in Frequency Modulation from Juba, Yei, Torit, Yambio, Rumbek, Tonj, Wau, and Malakal. CRN has also a station in the Nuba Mountains. All the stations share the same vision and mission, and are bound by common editorial and administrative policies. All stations broadcast shared programs in English: news, civic education, and other educational programs. Due to the heterogeneous realities of South Sudan, each station is rooted in its locality and broadcasts locally produced culture-sensitive programs in the languages which are understood by the local people. For its outreach, CRN has a potential audience of about seven million people, considering the influx of returnees to South Sudan after the Sudan Population Census 2008.
