Two priests of the Catholic Archdiocese of Juba celebrated their twelfth anniversary of services.
Frs Noel Nyombe Santo and Alfred Lodu Modi were among six priests ordained by Archbishop Paolino Lukudu Loro on July 25, 2004, Radio Bakhita reports.
Fr Noel Nyombe now Secretary-General of the Archdiocese, describes being a priest as a beautiful gift from God.
He encourages young people to join the vocation in order to serve people of God.
Fr Alfred Lodu, Vice Chancellor of St Mary’s College, says celebrating 12 years of priesthood signifies his commitment to continue serving God and his people.
He urges the people of South Sudan to have trust in God as the only person who can give peace.
The two priests studied their philosophy and theology in Rome, Italy and were ordained deacons there.
