Emeritus Bishop of Torit Catholic Diocese advises South Sudanese to initiate reconciliation and peace from their hearts and practise among themselves for the realization of stability in the country.
Bishop Paride Taban tells participants of peace building and reconciliation workshop that South Sudanese must live in a way that can be imitated by others.
He believes maintaining a peaceful living requires constant spiritual weeding by retelling messages of peace.
Reconciliation must be viewed from political, spiritual and cultural aspects for it to be complete, says Jim Long John, the Executive Secretary for Justice and Peace Desk in South Sudan Catholic Bishops’ Conference.
Meanwhile, participants in the reconciliation workshop sing songs of renewal with calls for casting away greed, hatred and falsehood.
One participant says the workshop on reconciliation has been inspiring and life transforming.
The two-day reconciliation seminar calls on South Sudanese to do away with envy, injustice and quarrels to reconcile and live together as a family.
