Please remember in your kindness to pray for a friend of mine, Fr. Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala who has been appointed Bishop–Elect of Tombura-Yambio in Sudan.
I know Fr. Kussala in Rome.
About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

A brave man, he has my prayers, Our Father will strengthen him.
I will pray, too.
Wow, I pray that there are still good Catholic Sudanese in Sudan. We have some refugees from Sudan in our diocese and they are very amazing men. I will pray for the bishop-elect. That is certainly a difficult position.
I will pray for Fr. Kussala today. His predecessor was allowed to stay on until he’d passed his eightieth birthday, which is rare for any prelate who is not a patriarch or cardinal. This points to the problems in that Diocese and throughout the Sudan.
P.K.T.P.
