Christians of Livanda
During a pastoral visit to this Christian community on Sunday January 28th 2024, Bishop Michael Bibi told faithful that the practice of the word of God in their lives should influence the lives of others so that they may be converted and follow Christ. The chief shepherd challenged Christians to make sure that there exist a balance between their work and commitment to the church and that to their families back at home. A true Christian should take care of his or her responsibilities both at home and in the church for this he says is the right way to serve God.
