Saints’ name is not colonial, we have to keep Catholic tradition by baptizing our children by giving them names of saints’, Wau Diocese Advisor says.
Mateo Francis added that South Sudanese have wrong concept about the names of saints’, Radio Voice of Hope reports.
Francis explained that the Catholic Church does not value people according to their tribes, but faith.
The official made this remark during baptism of 24 children at St Mark Chapel of St Mary Parish in Wau on Sunday.
