The General Assembly has begun with the Holy Mass presided by H.E. Charles Daniel Balvo
This is a brief extract of his homily.
Act of the
apostles, what was their identity? Who were they? Simply Jews or
missionaries to the gentiles? To whom do they have to go? And they
had the first gathering in Jerusalem to decide to see if they were
something new but still recognising their origin.
They were
both, rooted in the Jewish tradition, but they were bearing something
new. We have inherited that “newness” of life and we keep
preaching it all over South Sudan. The things that keeps us together
is the Lord Jesus himself; he's the vine we are the branches.
Whatever we face his life and love is present in our own lives; yet
sometimes we cut off ourselves from him.
These are
important days for South Sudan, maybe peace will come, but the best
will come if we do not forget our mission, spreading the love of God
remaining rooted in Jesus Christ. Paul was convinced that nothing
can separate us from God, we shall not forget that.
Have a good work to all the participants
And these is just some Group Work after plenary session
