"Go and make disciples..." (Mt 28, 19)

Last year, the Diocesan Council identified “catechesis” as the priority of the Vicariate. A priority means that something takes place over other things, in resources, time, energy, planning... It means that we will have to give our time, our energy, our prayer, our reflection to this over other things.

It was decided to invite Ms. Prisca Hadebe to help us implement our priority. Her passion for catechesis and a lifetime experience made her the ideal choice.

In November last year Ms. Prisca came to the Vicariate for a meeting with the Bishop, some of the priests and one of the Sisters. It was the first step in order to share the history of catechesis in the Vicariate, the present situation and how to develop our own vision for the future.

The next step was gathering all the priests of the Vicariate at Ubombo. The seminarians presently working in the different Missions were invited too.

On Saturday 19th December, the community of St Alexis (Ubombo) gathered for a special celebration: Mandla Msweli would be ordained deacon. It was probably the first time that an ordination would be held there. Many priests from the Vicariate, the Daughters of Charity, the Dominican Sisters, the members of the Good Shepherd Institute and people from the different Missions were present.

During his sermon and following the Gospel where John the Baptist points to two of his disciples “the Lamb of God” and later on one of them, Andrew, introduces his brother Peter to Jesus, the Bishop reminded the people that in Mandla's life it was the word and example of Fr Thomas Carrol OSM who helped Mandla to understand his call to priesthood. It was also the support of his family, especially his mother, who helped him all these years.
