UE/R: SOCO PROJECT FACILITATORS URGED TO WORK HARD FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE PROJECT – DCE NABDAM
The Bishop of Navrongo -Bolgatanga Diocese, Most Rev. Alfred Agyenta in his sermon called on Christians to reflect and radiate the fruits of the Holy Spirit in all their endeavors.
This came to light as he celebrated Pentecost with congregants and members of Catholic Charismatic as they observe Pentecost at Our Lady Queen of Africa in Bolga. He indicated there are nine gifts of the Holy Spirit, emphasis was placed on four which are:
- Love: love is not blind but clear sight or consciousness. However, Christians must do good to their neighbors without discrimination.
- Joy: Christianity is not a religion of gloom, but life of happiness with trust and knowing that God is in charge. As Christian they live and share joy with everyone.
- Peace: A genius Christians is a person that accepts whom he/she is and radiating it in the community. The world needs peace now more than ever before as we are confronted with conflicts and war almost everywhere.
- Self-control: Christian must be in-charge of oneself and well disciplined. He indicated without self-control we won’t be able to progress. Failure to discipline one’s self will lead to self-distractions and condemnation.
In conclusion without the discipline and love the gift of the Holy Spirit in us is useless and valueless. He called on the congregants to pray for the gift and fruits of the Holy Spirit to strengthen them on their Christian journey and wherever they find themselves.
