Faithful of the Divine Mercy Anglophone Community, Djarengol Maroua, began their day with blessings from the Bishops in the course of the celebration of holy mass officiated by His Grace Archbishop Joseph Atanga, of the archdiocese of Bertoua.
The Eucharistic celebration marked the beginning of the 5th day of the Bishop’s annual seminar holding in Maroua-Mokolo. His Lordship George Nkuo, Bishop of the Diocese of Kumbo, in his homily, encouraged Christians to pray so that they may be able to decern the voice of God in their lives. He called on them to be people of faith who Listen and respond to the call of God.
The local ordinary also challenged faithful to be instruments of God’s love and peace and most importantly to create a balance between work and time for prayers so that they may not loose focus on the things of heaven.
The Divine Mercy Church is noted as a historic church, 2nd in the diocese of Maroua-Mokolo
After morning prayer and mass, the bishops continued the day with sessions of discussions on matters of the church guided by the theme “a synodal church on mission”
