Torit Diocese Apostolic Administrator taught Christians to love one another and eliminate hatred and revenge.
Monsignor Thomas Oliha called on the faithful to respect their neighbours as a manifestation of the love of God, Emmanuel Radio reported.
The Apostolic Administrator preached that a Christian neither hates nor revenges, but as a follower of Christ loves all people.
He condemned the killing of twelve women and children and the destruction of a village in Loudo Payam, saying it portrayed revenge and hatred.
Monsignor Oliha made the remarks on Sunday during the graduation of 97 members of Small Christians Communities at Sts Peter and Paul Cathedral in Torit.
