“INJUSTICES MUST ANNOY YOU” Archbishop Tambala

By Fr. Francis Damaseke

 

Archbishop George Desmomd Tambala has advised the clergy and people of good will to be concerned with and never be shy to correct injustices in society.

 

Speaking at the ordination of Deacon Thomas Msalala at St Paul’s Minor Seminary at Mitundu in the Archdiocese of Lilongwe, The Archbishop said priests should actually get angry with injustices on humanity. He therefore, called on the Clergy to be near to the suffering masses and condemn any injustices in society.

 

“I urge priests to choose for themselves models from within the Church, and not outside, so that they stand up for justice for the people of God,” said Archbishop Tambala.

 

The Archbishop further advised the new priest, Fr. Thomas Msalala, to stand up for the truth and also work to bring souls to salvation.

 

” Your priority responsibility is to bring souls to Christ. Life shall definitely not be all roses. But always remember this day (of your ordination). It will remind of your commitment to God,” said the Archbishop.

 

Upon his ordination, Fr Thomas Msalala has been posted to Kaggwa Parish as his mission area.

 

In his remarks on behalf of diocesan priests, Fr. Kenedy Malemia, welcomed Fr. Msalala in the fold of local priests. Fr. Malemia thanked formators for the work they continue to do in molding priests.

 

He was, however, concerned that for the whole of 2021, the Archdiocese of Lilongwe has only produced one local priest but was optimistic that the ceremony would inspire more young men to want to become priests.
