CHRIST MUST EFFICACIOUSLY REIGN AGAIN

-

 

Dear Ambassadors of Christ, congratulations for responding to the Call of the Master in affirmative; “Here I Am, Send Me”.  

Last year (2022) one of the most prominent news that attracted people’s attention worldwide was the death of the British monarch Elizabeth II. I believe even those innocent about monarchical leadership went on Television or online to follow her last rites.

Personally, I was intrigued; what is it that caused this massive attention to the demise of a British monarch? Then, royalty ringed in my mind, I then asked myself; what really draws us and cause us to be excited too much about royalty? As I pondered this, I remembered my Catechesis lesson on Baptism – in Baptism one becomes a royal – sharing the Royalty of Christ. For nothing else convinced me than this about my attraction and why others maybe are attracted to royalty. I believe even the unbaptized and those who don't believe in Christian faith are attracted to royalty because they too consciously or unconsciously are attracted to the Royalty of Christ.

It is surprising that much as we are attracted to royalty, there is the spirit of rejection of any form of authority, including that of Christ in the name of autonomous living and freedom almost in every society today. This is one of the many challenging situations you are being commissioned to face today – leading defiant people who still are attracted to royalty, more over yours will be to proclaim a royalty of service and humility.

To make Christ’s Royalty more efficacious again, the Princes of His Kingdom (Bishops, Priests and Deacons) whose collage many of you is about to join soon together with the Christ’s faithful should pray that God give us the insight to use this people’s attraction to royalty to bring His people to the Church – the Kingdom of His Son here on earth to use the words of Pius XI in spite of their inclination to be free from any form of authority.

For Christ must reign in our hearts and societies again – you are the princes and ambassadors of this, I Pray that God give you all the necessary Graces to imitate, preach and propagate the Kingship of Christ who though a royal is a servant of all. In this (service), you too and your congregation will reign in the Kingdom of Christ, for the Glory of God and Peace to His people on earth.

Congratulations !!! Be ambassadors of Christ.

+Praise Be Christ The King+

AMEN.

THE ONLY CONDITION FOR PEACE IN TODAY'S INSECURE SOCIETY

Peace is the state that every living being yearns for, it seems that every activity of a living being is geared towards attainment of peace. This we can affirm in our experience - for we long for, we work for and we directs our mind, energy and resources to what we see would fetch for us peace. Even those who we think direct their thoughts, speeches and actions towards those things whose evil consequences and detrimental impact on peace can be foreseen do so with the blind hope that those things would obtain peace for them and maybe the society they live in.  Recently, our Country have witnessed what many have termed, "cold-blood" murder of our fellow Nationals and an expatriate, this together with economic challenges especially that of inflated prices of goods and services, corruption even by the top Government officials, natural and environmental hazards like River Katonga flooding, Cattle rustling in Lango and Teso, among others can make many of us who were calling our cou...
