The Catholic Archbishop of Nairobi arrived today in Juba in transit to
Yambio where he will ordain a number of priests and a deacon and take
part in the beginning of the centenary of evangelization among the
Zande.

Cardinal John Njue told CRN News upon his arrival at Juba
International Airport that he was invited by Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro of
Tombura-Yambio to ordain five priests from his diocese and one deacon
from El-Obeid.

He added that he accepted the invitation with much pleasure also
because he has the opportunity to know other part of South Sudan and
witness the growth of the Church in the new country.

The ordinations take place in Yambio Cathedral on Thursday, the Feast
of the Immaculate Conception of Mary.

On Sunday, Tombura-Yambio diocese starts celebrating its centenary of
evangelization that concludes on December 12, 2012.
