Holy Family Parish-Lainya and that of Sts Peter and Paul in Mundiri are without priests due to insecurity in the areas, says Yei Catholic Bishop.
 
Bishop Erkolano Lodu Tombe says insecurity in the two areas forced residents to flee for safety and the priests lacked people to serve, Radio Easter reports.
 
He says the diocese has recalled priests in the two parishes and will take them back when the situation is calm and residents return to the areas.
 
The Bishop thanks Yei State government and Lainya local authorities for protecting the priests amidst the insecurity in the area.
 
He was giving his remarks to Christ the King Cathedral congregation on Sunday.
