Noting that Christian life entails \u201csearching for meaning,\u201d Archbishop Wokorach invited the 13 LSMIG members, who made their perpetual vows, and the others who marked 25, 50, and over 60 years of Consecrated life to \u201cconstantly look for new meaning\u201d as they live their vocations.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery moment can be a moment to make a search and discern where the presence of the risen Christ is, the life of Christ is,\u201d he said and added, \u201cWe are capable of making discernment worth moving us closer to who God is to us, to discover his presence in the different experiences we go through, pain, suffering, or joy.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ugandan Catholic Church leader challenged the Sisters to preserve the heritage of their religious Congregation by remaining faithful to their vocation, which he described as \u201ca gift for Christ\u201d offered with a sincere and generous heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery gift has meaning because it is given with a heart, with a sincere heart, with a generous heart. Your life will be a blessing in front of God and in front of the church because you have given yourself completely with a very sincere heart,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He added, \u201cThis will uphold the true sense of heritage of the congregation founded a few years ago, as few as more than 80 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n
In his January 5 homily Archbishop Wokorach, who has been at the helm of the Gulu Metropolitan See since July 2024, reminded the Sisters that education remains central to their Congregation\u2019s founding charism and mission and urged them to continue making their schools centers of evangelization, unity, and hope.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour vocation is to bring people to the light of Christ through Christian education, through education that will prepare the future of the society. This should anchor, and reflect in your life, in your institute day by day,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
