Christians of St. Augustine's Cathedral Parish have been told to pray in oder to receive the strength from God. His Lordship Dominic Kimengich said this today when celebrating Mass at the Cathedral parish. He said that prayer in ones life brings fulfillment and strength.
His lordship said that when they work for God everything becomes possible as compared to when one does against his will. He urged the faithfuls to pray when working since the work they do is for God and not theirs and thus they need God's protection and guidance. His lordship mentioned three types of work in church being, to Proclaim the good news, building a community life leveled with a sense of belonging to each other in a brotherly manner and above all leading a prayerful life.
He challenged the Christians to examine themselves and see what they have done to bring the good news of Christ to those who have not heard about it. He also asked them to reflect on their various calls and identify the part of Christs body they belong in as they endeavor to build the kingdom of Christ on earth. Bishop Dominic said that people get burned down by their works because they do not pray. He thus urged the Christians to cultivate the culture of prayer in their day to day lives so as to receive strength.
