Bishop, pray for the people of Rumbek and all South Sudanese to remain hopeful towards the future despite insecurity and inter-communal clashes, residents of Rumbek asks Tombura-Yambio Catholic Bishop during a visit.
Bishop Barani Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala says the residents of Rumbek also requested him to pray against economic crisis, starvation and diseases in their area and the country entirely, Radio Anisa reports.
The Catholic Diocese of Rumbek remains without a bishop since the death of Bishop Caesar Mazollari five years ago.
Bishop Hiiboro hails the people of Rumbek for receiving him warmly.
The pastoral visit was very good and successful, he describes.
Rumbek is one of the distinguished scenes of bloody inter-communal clashes in South Sudan.
