Frs.
Angel Valdivia and David Escrich of the Missionary Community of Saint
Paul the Apostle (MSCPA) have been posted from their present station
of Lokitaung Parish to Jimma Bonga Vicariate, where they are expected
to work among the Dassanach community of Ethiopia. This was announced
to Christians by Bishop Dominic Kimengich during the official
opening of the Inter-Diocesan Conference on Peace and Cross-Border
Evangelization at St. Augustine’ Cathedral. The area where
they have been posted to do missionary work has been without these
services for a long time though MCSPA at Todonyang parish has been
extending some of their activities to the region; a move that has
seen relationship between the two communities
improved at times. The priests who have been working at Lokitaung
Parish, are expected to move to their new stations by January
next year. MSCPA has been spearheading cross-border peace
building initiatives among the two communities of Dassanach and
Turkana. On the other hand, Fr. Angel who previously worked at
the Cathedral has had a hand in evangelization of peace in Turkana
when he worked as Assistant Communications Coordinator and later as
the Radio Akicha Director.
