After due consultation and consideration with those who assist me in the work of the care for the souls of the faithful in the Diocese of Arua , Kodoa Chapel, dedicated to St.Catherine is now elevated to a Eucharistic Center," said the Bishop.

BBishop Sabino called for vocation to Priesthood, Religious life and other vocations. "For those to be confirmed today, don't let this day pass without asking God for a vocation."
