One hundred and one children received the Sacrament of Baptism on Thursday in the Sacred Heart Parish Tonj of the Catholic Diocese of Rumbek, confirms the Parish Priest.
Out of one hundred and eighteen children who registered for the baptism, only one hundred and one turned up, says Fr Paul Antimi, Radio Don Bosco reports.
It is easy to run away from the church, but impossible to escape from God, he points out.
Fr Paul urges parents to teach their children to know God.
The speakers made the remarks on Thursday during the baptism ceremony.
