SOUTH SUDAN: Wau Diocese Proposes The Second Sunday of May to be Caritas Day
Though the countries separated, the Catholic Bishops Conference remained one
The Catholic Diocese of Wau has proposed that the second Sunday of May be the day to commemorate Caritas Day annually. According to Voice of Hope Radio, Caritas Coordinator in the Diocese Rev. Fr. Moses Peter anticipated that the day be celebrated mainly for fundraising to help those in need.
Fr. Peter encouraged the faithful to mobilize enough funds for assisting the less fortunate in the society. “Caritas will only be able to avail basic needs to the needy if the Christians contribute more,” he said.
He promised that the collections during the Second Sunday of May in Wau, will be sent to Caritas office and eventually distributed to needy places in the dioceses.
