LOCAL NEWS – 18.05.2011 - BY ZACHEAUS OTABA - Mass held for the paralegals

The paralegals from the diocese of Lodwar, have been undergoing a training on peace and justice since Monday 16th. Today they were privileged to attend a mass to bless the activities of the day, which was led by Fr. Raphael Cephalo of Risen Christ Nakwamekwi parish. In his homily father Cephalo encouraged the members to go out and proclaim for their rights with the help of God's power.
He said that Jesus was innocent but was condemned and killed, but that could not stop him from rebuilding the temple as he promised. Fr. Cephalo said that the world of today is full of evil and that they should speak against it. He noted that following the preaching of peace and justice, most countries including Kenya are now starting to experience change.
He showed his disappointment saying that many people are in jail innocently due to injustices done to them. He agreed that justice begins with one self and that, all those trained should apply it to others practically. The four days training which brings together more than 25 members, started on Monday 16th and will be ending tomorrow 19th of May 2011.
