Tuesday 27 May 2014

One hundred years is no short time.It is a long time, indeed. That is why the celebration of a centenary is usually a big event, especially if it is the centenary of evangelization. This is the big event that the Catholic world in the Archdiocese of Bamenda is bracing up to celebrate on Thursday, May 29, 2014 which is Ascension Day. In actual fact, what shall happen on Thursday shall be the peak event. The celebration has been going on for one year.  It started on the 28th of June 2013 in Fujua, Fundong, in Boyo Division where the Catholic Faith started in a very modest way. From such a humble beginning it grew from Parish to Parish just as from Fujua the centenary cross travelled from Parish to Parish to end in the Cathedral.
Catholic Christians in the Archdiocese of Bamenda  have enough reasons to celebrate. What the Catholic Church has done for the people of God in this locality is more than tongue can tell. We can say loudly and clearly that 'God is Great', for indeed, he is great.
