Local news 9.5.11 - By Mary Tioko - Priest urges the Diocesan personnel to serve in good faith


Priest urged the Diocesan personnel to serve in good faith in their various programmes. Fr. Geoffrey Nakutan said this when celebrating Mass at St. Thomas Chapel today. The mass that is always done to kick start the week was led by Pontifical Missionary Societies in conjunction with Anna Nanjala center. Speaking in his homily Fr. Nakutan said that those who are happy are those whose life is blameless. He also said that in every situation, one has to set some standards of what to be achieved in the jobs and the social lives. He encouraged the staff to have good and open heart always.
The priest said that the staff have to be in good relationship with God and other people in the way they live in the community. He termed that as Christian naturalness. He encouraged all who are Christians to be consistent in what they say and do. He also said that a Christian is open to challenges in life and looks for alternatives that are constructive. He said that the catholic church is outstanding in all its approaches and encouraged the staff to face challenges in life and seek the grace of our lord Jesus Christ. He asked the staff to ask God the almighty for patience and grace to share what they face with other people.
Fr. Nakutan said that God gives them a chance to change for the better so long as their intentions are pure and open. He urged them to communicate the treasures they receive with others and also pass it to the next generation. He added that the missionaries brought the word of God to the Diocese and Fr. Nakutan believes that the same spirit still grows as long as they believe in one that as been sent to redeem them, Jesus Christ.
