Caxito, 11 April, 2024 / 4:09 pm (ACI Africa).
Bishop Maurício Agostinho Camuto of Caxito Diocese in Angola has encouraged Christians in the Southern Africa nation to seek the path of reconciliation, love, and peace in order to curb the country’s conflicts.
In his Sunday, April 8 homily at Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish of Caxito Diocese, Bishop Camuto said, “A Christian can no longer live like a pagan, a Christian can no longer embrace the path of hatred, the path of revenge, the path of enmity, the path of violence, the path of wars and conflicts.”
A Chsritian, the Bishop said, “must embrace another path. The path of reconciliation, love, peace and being one with our brothers and sisters, being one with others, regardless of what they think, regardless of their party.”
The Angolan member of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit under the protection of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (CSSp/Spiritans) further said, “The disciples are our models because they also took their model from Jesus, they learned from Jesus.”
“We too must learn from them to have the courage to bear witness to our faith. Even in difficult times, let us bear witness to our faith in Christ who died and rose again. He is the one who calls us and he also wants our good,” Bishop Camuto said.
