Andiamo Youth Cooperative Trust (AYCT) will on Sunday, 20 October celebrate the World Mission Sunday and the 50th Wedding Anniversary of Bepi and Mirella.
World Mission Sunday is a day that was set aside for Catholics worldwide to recommit themselves to the Church’s missionary activity through prayer and sacrifice.
Pope John Paul II described this day as an important day in the life of the Church “because it teaches how to give: as an offering made to God, in the Eucharistic celebration and for all the missions of the world.”
In his message for the Mission Sunday, Pope Francis says Missionarity, is not alone about geographical territories, but it is about peoples, cultures and individuals, because the “boundaries” of faith do not only cross places and human traditions, but the heart of each man and each woman.
Soon after the mass, which will be celebrated in the Umodzi Hall in Andiamo Education Institutions (AEI) campus, Alleluya band will perform to celebrate 50 years of marriage life of Mirella and Bepi. Mirella is the sister of Fr. Mario Pacifici, who is one of the founding trustees of AYCT.
