LET US JOURNEY WITH HIM

Friday evenings are chances to embark on our journey of accompaniment for a fundamental gain which is spiritual nourishing. As Jesus commenced his journey to Calvary, we journey with him also. During this time of lent, we carry our own worries, disappointments, fears and torments in communion with Jesus in the painful experience that yielded joy and happiness to humanity. We are all invited to put ourselves at his feet in a humble and prayerful manner. It is all for our own benefit and of the whole world.

As Lavigerie fraternity in Jinja Formation House, it is an important moment to have the privilege to discern consciously God’s call and all He is doing in our lives. It is not a solicitation to comfortable life, we are called upon to take up our crosses and face the reality of life along Jesus just like in the way to Calvary. It is an invitation especially during this lantern season, to be much in line with the three pillars of this season; prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

May this time of prayer, fasting and almsgiving be a resourceful experience for all, both directly and indirectly. May He, the merciful Father, grant us the grace to learn to forgive and to do good especially this special moment in our church’s’ calendar. And above all, may we attain the GREAT HAPPINESS in Him who came to redeem us.


NAMANYA JUSTUS.
