in his homily during the thanks giving Holy Mass for the Graduation held at the
University Main Campus in Langata, Nairobi, Kenya
Referring to
the Gospel reading of the day, Cardinal Berhaneyesus, who is also the Chairman
of AMECEA said that messengers are equipped with only trust in God. “It is not
an easy task to preach the Gospel of hope, joy, and freedom; trust in God is
therefore big weapon to defend oneself,” he said.
He said that
when the disciples were commissioned to go and spread the Good News, they were
told not to show any difference between rich and poor, slave and master but
rather to go to everyone because all needs to listen to the message; likewise
he urged the graduating students to embrace the same spirit in their service
deliveries. “Do not differentiate who should be the child of God, to whom the
Gospel should be delivered. Whether received or rejected the message of the
Gospel remains the same.”
