In the remote parishes of Nebbi, we are helping to ignite and strengthen the light of faith among communities. As the charitable arm of Nebbi Catholic Diocese, we implement holistic programs that include spiritual nourishment and formation.
Working closely with the Diocesan Pastoral Department, we support initiatives to enrich the faith life of clergy, religious and laypeople across Nebbi, Zombo and Pakwach districts. From liturgical celebrations to sacramental participation to prayer gatherings, a multifaceted range of activities cater to the diverse spiritual needs.
Retreats and workshops offer periods of profound reflection, learning and fellowship for various groups. Priests, nuns, catechists and other leaders recharge and renew their vocational drive. Special retreats for youth, women and families deepen their relationships with God.
Access to religious materials is also facilitated. Bibles, catechisms, lectionaries and devotional literature are distributed to parishes, chapels and schools. These resources enable enriching personal and communal scripture study.
To strengthen communal worship, we support construction and maintenance of churches, chapels and shrines. Expanding and improving sacred spaces allows more vibrant and joyful liturgical celebrations.
Catechists are trained to effectively instruct adults, youth and children in the faith. Sacramental preparation programs teach the meaning and importance of baptism, first communion, confirmation and more. Support for vocations promotes priestly and religious service.
Interfaith collaboration fosters mutual understanding between Catholic, Anglican and Muslim communities shared values of peace, service and human dignity are reinforced.
The spiritual nourishment provides comfort and direction to many, like Alena Acos, a youth group member who says, “The retreat showed me how God is always with me, guiding me, even when I feel lost or alone.”
Though the seeds of faith have been planted, more resources are needed to cultivate spiritual growth across Nebbi. Your generous support helps us ignite and nourish the flame within more hearts.
