Wau, 29 April, 2023 / 9:08 pm (ACI Africa).
The Catholic Bishop of South Sudan’s Wau Diocese has lamented superficiality that he says characterizes interactions among the people of God in the East-Central African nation.
Speaking during his pastoral visit to St. Daniel Comboni Parish of his Episcopal See, Bishop Matthew Remijio underscored the need for change, advocating for the practice of telling the truth.
“Our sharing is always very superficial because we don’t want people to know the truth about us and what we are doing,” Bishop Remijio said during the Tuesday, April 25 visit.
He explained, “When we come to the truth, we don’t share the deep reality and the experience that we are living, especially the adults.”
“This is not true preaching because it’s like we are pretending to teach each other but there is nothing,” the South Sudanese member of the Comboni Missionaries (MCCJ) lamented.
