Two Candidates Incorporated in Tanzania

By Fr. Felix Mushobozi

This is another happy day for the CPPS Tanzanian Province, Friday evening of the 9th July 2021. After the conclusion of the Business Assembly and Conference, about 56 Missionaries gathered for a celebration of the Eucharist in the Body and Blood Kola B. Parish church, during which two candidates Abel William Missanga and John Simon Kisoli were incorporated to the Missionaries of the Precious Blood making the total of our Missionaries in our Province to be 89. The event was presided over by the Provincial Director Fr. Vedasto Ngowi, together CPPS Missionaries present. During his Homily the Provincial Director exhorted the new CPPS members to generously respond to their call to serve the Lord just as prophet Jeremiah did despite their personal contingencies. What is required of every Missionary is fidelity to our call putting our lives at the service of God and his people unreservedly, just as our founder St. Gaspar did. After the Eucharistic celebration, parents, relatives and friends were invited to share a happy fraternal meal and feasting prepared by St. Gaspar’s college. The two candidates are scheduled to be ordained Deacons on Saturday 10 July 2021 in the same Parish church.
