The mass started with procession from Mikeka grounds Lodwar through Lodwar streets to the cathedral church where mass started that was celebrated by the vicar general of the Diocese of Lodwar Fr. Joseph Ekalimon. Addressing the faithful during his homily, Fr. Ekalimon said that the Eucharist is the climax of their sacraments in life and that Christians to always ensure that they participate in this holy communion that nourishes their lives.

Fr. Ekalimon said that Eucharist brings them close to God and his Holy alter where the word is read. He said that Eucharist reminds them of the Passover in the Old Testament and Jesus himself giving them his own blood and body in the form of the holy sacrament of Eucharist. He challenged those who do not receive the Eucharist to do make effort of settling all the obstacles that prevent them from receiving for they have denied themselves the bread of life.
Fr. Ekalimon who is also the vocation director of the catholic diocese of Lodwar introduced the two present deacons in church, Deacon charles kapengi from kainuk parish and Gabriel Nakamu from Kalokol parish as they prepare to start their pastoral work in the assigned parishes as they await their ordinations soon.
