Local news – 12.02.2012 - By Rose - Do it for the glory of God students told

Christians have been called to have all done for the glory of God. Speaking during the third mass celebration at St Augustine parish today, Fr. Bonaventure Emathe said that, Christians have a poor understanding of purity. Referring to the Gospel where Jesus healed a leaper, The priest said that people understood leprosy as a punishment from God, which is wrong.
Fr. Bonaventure said that Christians should learn how to treat someone who is in need of their help and that they should do to others what they expect to be done to them. Giving an example of a man who helped a sick man on the road after listening to an advice, he said that if one runs away, he or she is running away from God.
The priest stressed that Christians need to know who a good neighbor is. The mass was attended by students from secondary and primary schools from within Lodwar town.
