Secretariat of Lodwar Diocese were informed the Value of making the difference by the Vicar general Fr. Joseph Ekalimon today. Speaking during his homily in mass, Fr. Ekalimon said that the apostles made sacrifices in their endeavors to preach the word of the Lord Jesus Christ to the whole world and made difference in life and that is why Christianity is here with them. Fr. Ekalimon said that the missionary journey is full of difficulties and the staff need to be hardened to serve in this missionary work they do in the Diocese and change lives of the people they serve. Fr. Ekalimon said that many people will always discourage them when what they do is not very clear and encouraged them to share their lives with others and in that they would be bounded together in love of Christ and get focused and counter the difficulties faced together as a team. The vicar general urged the staff to be committed to their work and practice accountability and consistence in all they do so as to win the interest of the people they serve. Fr. Ekalimon said that tolerance and flexibility is key in making a difference in people's lives. He encouraged the staff to have the confidence from within themselves and move forward. Fr. Ekalimon said that unless one is convinced of what he or she is doing he will not belief in it. He also said that when you belief you will be convinced and work with the dedication and sacrifice work deserves. The priest encouraged the staff to make a difference in the image of the Diocese through the various activities undertaken. The Diocesan Chancellor welcomed and introduced the visitors from Luxembourg who have visited livelihood and youth program to oversee the various activities undertaken by the staff. Visiting are Denise Richard and Jean Mathias Goereous from Luxembourg who appreciated the work done by the two programmes and encouraged more difference in the diocese.
