The launching of the centenary celebration that had been slated to take place at the Ave Maria Catholic Mission Ngboko on April 29th, 2023, in Rii – Yubu, Tombura County has been called off “due to the military confrontation taking place currently in Rii – Yubu”.
In a statement signed by Rev. Fr. Dominic Sasa, the Chancellor of the Catholic Diocese of Tombura Yambio stated that as a Diocese, they call and appeal for calm in Rii – Yubu, thus requesting for prayer intentions for the current insecurity happening both in Sudan and South Sudan. “Our hearts and prayers go for those who lost their lives and may God comfort their families and their dear ones”.
In their statement dated 24th April 2023, the organizing committee thanked the diocese and all invited guests for responding to their kind invitation and at the same time apologizing for the inconvenience that has taken place due to this decision.
The statement further indicated that the ordination of their three candidates to the priesthood will take place at St. Mary Mother of God Catholic Parish Yambio on the 30th of April 2023 from 9.00 am.
