THE DIOCESE OF SAVANAH HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH A DIOCESE IN NIGERIA WHO SUPPLIES US PRIESTS


The Bishop of the Diocese of Savannah, The Most Rev. Stephen Parkes, visiting Nigeria last week and ordained two men there as priests. I am not sure if these men will be coming to the Diocese of Savannah or not. Please note the albs that these African priests like!

This is from Bishop Parkes’ facebook page:

Traveled to Nigeria last week to honor the 25th Anniversary of Priesthood for Bishop Isaac Dugu of the Diocese of Katsina-Ala (AMORE Media) and was honored to ordain two men to the Sacred Priesthood last Saturday! 

I am grateful for the personal friendship and pastoral collaberation that our Diocese of Savannah shares with the Diocese of Katsina-Ala and with the Diocese of Gboko, which I also visited.  

Checked in with Fr. Solomon Kaanan and Fr. Theodore Agba, who are doing well!  Fr. Scott Winchel, Pastor of St. Anne Catholic Church, Columbus, Georgia and one of our Vicars General, accompanied me.
