Local news – 6.5.12 - By Mary Tioko - Diseases of hate, Lies and Greed widens relationships with God: Says priest

The Christian community of St. Augustine's Cathedral Church have been warned against the diseases of the soul that destroy ones relationship with God. Speaking today during his homily at St. Augustine's Cathedral parish church, the assistant priest of the Cathedral Fr. Gideon Ngelechei named hate, greed, lies and many others as diseases that destroy ones relationship with God.

Fr. Ngelechei also noted that many people are very quick in judging others without examining their own conscience warning them to keep off from judging others since God is the only person who knows them in and out. He also said that one cannot ask of the other what he himself cannot do! He called upon all to treat each other with dignity and respect they deserve.

Touching on leadership, he urged the Christians to seek for the guidance from God and learn more on leadership so as to elect God fearing leaders who deliver in the community and treat all the same without any discrimination.

Fr. Ngelechei introduced the parish Jubilee committee Chairman Mr. Paul Ngumi who invited the guests of honours in of the Harambee and went ahead to conduct the mini harambee and managed to raise 108,000/=. The next Harambee is scheduled to take place in June awaiting the major Harambee in August. The Cathedral parish is expected to raise 500,000/= towards the construction of Jubilee Plaza.
