In truth, the whole of humanity has the radical vocation to return to its source, to return to God, since in Him alone can it find accomplishment through the restoration of all things in Christ.Dispersion,multiplicity,conflict,enmity will be calmed and reconciled through the blood of the Cross and led back to unity. This new beginning has already started with the Resurrection and the exaltation of Christ, who draws all things to Himself, renewing them and enabling them to share in the eternal joy of God. The future of the new creation shines already in our world and despite contradictions and suffering, kindness hope for new life. The church’s mission is to “infect” all peoples with hope. This is why Christ calls, sanctifies and sends his disciples to announce the kingdom of God, so that all nations may become the people of God. It is only in this mission that the through journey of humanity is understood and attested. The universal mission should become a fundamental constant in the life of the church. To announce the Gospel must be for us, as it was for the Apostle Paul, a primary and impelling duty.
The universal Church which knows neither boarders nor frontiers responsible for announcing the Gospel to the whole people (cf Evangelii nuntiandi, 53).It is the duty of the Church, seed of hope by vocation, to continue Christ’s service in the world. The measure of her mission and her service is not material or even spiritual needs restricted to temporal existence, instead, it is transcendent salvation, fulfilled in the kingdom of God (cf Evangelii nuntiandi, 27).This Kingdom, although eschatological in its completeness and not of this world (cf Gv 18, 36), is in this world and in its history, a force for justice and peace, for true freedom and respect for human dignity of every human person. The Church wishes to transform the world with the proclamation of the Gospel of love,” that can always illuminates a world grown dim and give us the courage needed to keep living and working…and in this way to cause the light of God to enter into the world” (Deus caritas est., 39).It is to this mission and to this service that I call, also with this message all the members and institutions of the Church to participate.

Muhammad Abacha, the eldest son of the late Head of State, General Sani Abacha, yesterday formally declared for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) during the swearing-in ceremony of the state executive council in Kano.
Muhammad Abacha’s for declaration for PDP in Kano came amidst speculations that the top echelons of the largest party in Africa have agreed to install him the next governor of the state.
Abacha, clad in with gown, dotted with black spots with his traditional black cap to match, was heralded into the venue by hundreds of youths chanting pro-Abacha slogan.
The declaration by the young Abacha yesterday was a climax of long trek to revive the political image of the family whose head, General Sani Abacha died June 1998 as Nigeria’s Head of State.
Muhammad Abacha had told journalists some months ago of his desire to join partisan politics to enable him contribute his quota to the political development of the country.
Events leading to the formal declaration by the scion of the Abacha family were products of a proactive strategy designed to clear the general impression held by many Nigerians about late Abacha.
Two former military rulers, General Muhammadu Buhari and General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida picked the gauntlet during the 10th year’s anniversary of their colleague and cleared him of any wrong doing while presiding over the affairs of the country in separate chats with journalists.

Congratulations to Ghana U-20 World Cup Team for making Africa and the entire Black Race prod over they gallant defeat of the almighty Brazilian Team. What really interest me in the match is not on how the match was played but the technicality of both teams, this shows that Africa Football have come of age.
It pains me and some of us that hold football to a high esteem, for those that take football as a religion on what have been happening to Nigeria Football. This is a Country that was once the best in Youth Football in Africa and one of the best in the whole world.
If we are to tell ourselves the truth and if we are to come back to where we are before now in youth football we must remove politics in the running of our football. This is a country were everything is politics that is why we don’t progress. If I may ask, is this the only country in the world that has different ethnic race? Or is this the only country in the world that has different religious belief? If the answer is no then why is Nigeria case different?
I have said it time without number that for us to be among the best in the game of football first and for-most we must allow those that are qualified i.e. that have played the game to the highest level to run the affairs not those so called politicians that feels that Glass House is their birth right. Secondly, School Football (Academicals) should be introduced back to Secondary School curriculum. And lastly, we should not neglect our Local League; there must be a call on all those Multi-national Companies to invest on our league. As you can see majority of Ghanaian players plays in their local league.
I believe that when all these are in place, Nigeria will perform well in every level of our football. Once again on behalf of all Africans and the entire Black Race I say big congratulations.

.

congratulations ghana, you have made the entire african continent proud.

In November every year Catholic Church through out the world celebrate the feast of the dedication of the Lateran Basilica, mother and head of all the churches of the city of Rome and of the world, the Cathedral of the Pope, constructed by the Emperor Constantine and originally dedicated to the Most Holy Saviour and later, in the Middle Ages also to St John the Baptist and St John the Evangelist.
The Lateran Basilica with its adjacent palaces was for many centuries the usual seat of the Pope.There, five Ecumenical Councils were held among them in 1215 during the pontificate of Innocent 111, IV Lateran Council, considered by historians to be the most important Council of the Middle Ages. For a thousand years the history of Christian Rome gravitated around that Basilica which the Popes, Emperors, Kings and faithful gradually adored with precious gifts and splendid works of art, signsof their intense faith in Christ.
The feast of the dedication of the church is a feast of our Lord. That is the reason why this feast has precedence over an ordinary Sunday of the year.
In remembering the initial dedication of the cathedral of Rome to Jesus, the Saviour of the world, today’s liturgy invites us to one of the fundamental mysteries of Christian revelation: Jesus of Nazareth,Messiah,Lord,Son of God, he is the one who brought total and definitive salvation to men and women of all times and places.
“Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up.” John 2, 19).Christ’s words proclaimed in the Gospel bring us to the very heart of the paschal mystery. Having entered the temple in Jerusalem, Christ shows his indignation that his Father’s house has been turned into a huge market. In response to this action of Jesus, Jews protest: “what sign have you to show us for doing this?”(John 2, 18).Jesus answers them by indicating the definitive sign:” Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up” (John 2, 19).
We see the temple and contemplate the Church. We see the building and penetrate its mystery. With the beauty of its symbols, the building reveals to us the mystery of Christ and his Church. In the cathedral of the Bishop we discover Christ the teacher who, through the apostolic succession, teaches us throughout the ages. In the alter we see Christ himself in the supreme act of redemption. In the baptismal font we find the bosom of the Church, virgin and mother, who impacts the life of God to the heart of her children. And looking at ourselves, we can say with St Paul: You are…God’s building…God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple”(1 Cor 3,9.17).

The question of the eternal predestination of all humans after their mortal existence is a nagging question which occupies anyone who is born into the world. There is usually association of the grace as a place of no life (nothingness) and complete void. In this case when we are confronted with the reality of death, we remember that there is a time when we are full and bulling with life, and a time when life ceases to be. In this case where does the soul of the decease one proceed to…, Is it to the mere soil and clay? This will be atrocious. Is it the case that after all the human achievements, one goes into oblivion?
The church uses this opportunity of the celebration to raise the hope of the faithful about the eternal predestination of all the faithful departed. In the Eucharistic preface of Christian death, it states “Lord for your faithful people life is changed, not ended when the body of our eternal dwelling lies in death we gain an Everlasting dwelling in heaven”. Death is the cessation of the mortal existence of the human person and the beginning of an immortal life of the deceased. It is taken by the study of eschatology that the eternal predestination of the soul of the human person is influenced by the kind of life one has lead in the course of his physical and corporate existence. The good, moral and ethical existence leads to an immoral life of eternal bliss and joy, while immodest and unexamined life is the introduction to the life of eternal perdition and punishment.
Our pre-occupation is where the soul of the faithful proceeds after their pilgrimage life here on earth. The Book of Wisdom (3:1-9) gives us a wonderful clue in this direction. “The souls of the upright are in the hands of God, and no torment can touch them. To the unenlightened they appear to die. Their departure was regarded as a disaster, their leaving us as annihilation, but they are at peace”. God desires and prepares a suitable and eternal wonderful home for his people. Therefore it is not necessary to begin to think of erecting a mausoleum mansion in which we will be buried in such that it becomes a home for us after death. Our attention should be drawn to the fact that our homes is created and made for us by God, eternal incomprehensive but a home to delight us.
Jesus tells us in John (14:1-3)”Do not let your heart be troubled. You trust in God trust also in me. In my fathers house there are many places to live in……I am going now to prepare a place for you and after I have gone and prepared you a place. I shall return to take you to myself”. In this way Jesus clearly points to us about the great preparation he has in store for those who follow him .There is a great reward that accompanies them after their heroic witnessing here on earth. No wonder St.Paul will exclaim (1 Cor.2:9)”what no eye has see no ear has heard what the mind of man cannot visualize all that God has prepared for those who love him……”
Upon these testimonies of sacred scripture, we know we have a homeland with God our father and his homeland belong to us if we live, move and have our being quite rooted in him. In the Eucharistic preface of the dead it states “he chose to die that he might free all man from dying. He gave his life that we may live forever”. Another of this preface says “Death is the just reward for our sins, yet when at last we die, your loving kindness calls us back to life in company with Christ whose victory is our redemption.” Indeed of our own merit we cannot ascend into a glorious eternal life that God has in store for us…, But by our unmeritous but God Gratuitous grace we are justified in the sight of God. Therefore our celebration is not far from having these departed ones in prayer so that, through their own human fragility they cannot be justified. But with our prayer for them God will tender mercy and grant them a place of joy and peace. As a militant church we must intensify our prayers for them and ask God to look on them with mercy.

THERE IS SOMETHING THAT BAFFLES ME WITH THIS NEW GENERATION CHURCHES WHICH I BELIEVE DISTURBS OTHER PEOPLE AND IS HIGH TIME THE SO CALL PASTORS PUT AN END TO IT.
DOES IT MEAN THAT PFN CANNOT FORMULATE A PARTERN ON HOW THEIR PREACHING OUGHT TO LOOK LIKE JUST LIKE THE ANGLICAN AND CATHOLIC CHURCH.WHAT BAFFLES ME MOST IS THAT ANYTHING THE PASTORS LIKE IS WHAT THEY PREACH, FOR EXAMPLE IS NOT IS PREACHED TODAY IN WARRI WILL BE WHAT IS BEEN PREACHED TODAY IN LAGOS.
I WAS IN A CHURCH FOR MY FRIEND'S CHILD DEDICATION IN ONE OF THE NEW GENERATION CHURCH IN WARRI, AS THE PASTOR WAS PREACHING HE STARTED MAKING COMMENTS AND REFRENCES THAT SOME MEMBERS HAS MORE THAT THREE DIP-FREEZER AND THAT HE NEED ONE NOT THAT HE SAID WAS WHAT SURPRISES ME BUT THAT HE WAS LED BY THE SPIRIT TO SAY IT.
MY QUESTION IS THIS,IS IT NOT HIGH TIME SOME OF THIS PASTORS STOP DECEIVING THEIR MEMBERS?

The month of August has come and gone. This is the month in which Catholic women who reside in their home communities and those who reside outside their community hold a common meeting. This comprises women who are indigenes of a particular place by birth or by marriage. The reasons why such meetings are held in the month of August may not be farfeched.In the month of August, there is a short period of dry whether popularly known as “August break”. This makes August suitable for gatherings. Being the eight month of the year, it is well spaced out from the festivity periods like January of New Year, Easter and Christmas seasons. These festive periods attract so many persons to their towns and villages and in order not to travel too frequently, August seems most appropriate.
Reasons for August Meeting.
There are many reasons why women come together from their different places of abode to hold august meeting. It is a period of re-union for home and ‘abroad’ women. It is a forum for women who were married from outside the community to interact with and know more about his people, their customs and traditions. It is an avenue for women to rub minds together on various issues affecting womenfolk. Such issues include health matters, children’s welfare, marriages and family life. Spiritual matters are not left out as church leaders are invited to give talks on issues bothering on spiritual matters, church’s teaching on family planning, divource, abortion, temporary separation and so on.
During August meetings, women discuss and make inputs on sustainable development of the local church in particular and the community in general.Furthermore,it is a period of evangelization as many people are converted to the faith when they see different activities going on.
Apart from all these, other activities like recognition of men and women who have contributed to the growth of the local church are carried out. Improvement of the lots of women is another major aim of August meeting, and of course, fund raising for the achievement of goals and objectives.
Who Should Attend August Meeting?
As stated earlier, it is a meeting of Catholic women who reside within and outside the communities. It was originally carried out by Christian women from the eastern part of the country. It is therefore a borrowed culture which spread over Catholic faithful and to Anglican faithful.
Challenges of August Meeting.So many challenges face the organization of August meeting. As earlier stated, it is borrowed tradition which was introduced to every part of Catholicism in the country. The objectives of the organization proper have not been fully imbibed. Many women do not know where to pitch their tent whether home parish or the residential parish, especially those who reside in towns very close to their home parish. The disunity and distrust among women have made the achievement of goals impossible. The abroad members do not see the need for the annual general meeting. What this means is that the women at home alone hold the meeting with very poor attendance from the abroad women. The economy of the nation is another obstacle militating against the attendance of annual general meeting by some women who find it difficult to make ends meet.
The Way Forward.
Since August meeting is a reunion of home and abroad women, all those concerned should endeavour to attend so as to make an input in the development of the church for as the saying goes east, west, north or south, home is the best. Be that as it may, it should not be a do or die affair. Women should unite and be their sister’s keeper at all time. Those who do not understand the concept of mass return should know that the August meeting is not the same as CWO meeting of the parish where one is domiciled.

There was Nigerian man that was waiting to buy a roasted corn by the road side but as he was about to collect the corn a car came from no way and killed him
So on getting to heaven God sent him to Hell Fire because he died a sinful man but while this was happening he was still holding his corn. As he was about to enter the Heal Fire he met the first devil who collected the corn from him and the man shouted in a load voice saying.
Man Godee tell Devoo to give me my Cornee.

What interests me most in this country of ours is that you cannot stay in a day without seeing or hearing a surprising thing(s). Everyday we keep on talking about re-branding of the country when we have not really re-branded ourselves. Some few years ago the Federal Government came up with the National Identity Card which the entire Nations welcome with utmost gladness through the National Identity Card Commission.

Just yesterday the Federal Government came up with a surprising package that by next year there will be a New Multi-purpose National Identity Card to be headed by Mr.Azezi.The question some of us are asking is do they really know that they are wasting our tax payer’s money? Do they really know that they are taking the Country backward?

If I may ask, the former Identity Card took the Nation many years to produce which they are trying to discard; personnel’s were trained both within and outside the country. Does it mean they do not know that the Identity Card lacks a lot of features, does it mean there was no feasibility study that was carried out then or that the people that are in charge then was incompetent?

Why I am asking all this questions is that this does not tell well of the Country and apart from this that they are taking us backward and a waste on the tax payers money. Let us be responsible enough because all what they are trying to do is to create an avenue for a cabre in the Country to squander our national resources. Please in the name of God enough of this economic waste.

For many, if one receives this sacrament, he is already at the point of death and nothing will make that person to survive. For this reason, many are afraid to call a priest whenever one is sick because if the neighbors hear that they called a priest for that person, they will conclude that the person will die. Although the sacrament began as a ritual of healing, over time the emphasis shifted to the forgiveness of sins on the sickbed, when such forgiveness would be the final preparation for heaven.

The second Vatican Council returned the original meaning to the sacrament by emphasizing that it is not only for those who are at the point of death, but for anyone who is seriously ill, including mental or spiritual illness. It also helped move the Anointing away from a private service and back toward a community-based one.

Today we are all aware that tensions, fear and anxiety about the future affect not only our mind but our body as well. These illnesses can be serious. They can move the priest to ask for the healing touch of Christ in the Sacrament of Anointing. Persons with the disease of alcoholism or persons suffering from other addictions can be anointed, so also are those suffering from various mental disorders. The anxiety before exploratory surgery to determine if cancer is present is a situation in which Christ’s power can be invoked in the sacrament. In these cases the person does not have to wait until the illness is so grave that he or she is in the hospital or institutionalized to celebrate the sacrament.Sacraments, after all, are community celebrations. It is preferable to celebrate them in the context of family and parish even before going to the hospital. The sick person has a better opportunity to appreciate the prayers and symbols of the rite when in her or his customary worshiping community.

Is very unfortunate that in this country the people that is in the helm of affairs seems not to look at the plight of the poor masses all because it does not affect them.
It makes me feel ashamed of myself that in a Country were resources are in abundance the govern cannot feel the impact of Democracy.
Is a thing of shame to the President and all concern that a Federal road from Benin to Lagos is in such a state, what is the Federal Ministry of Works or FERMA doing? Does it mean they don’t pass the road? Or they just want another casualty to happen there just like the one in Anambra State before they look into it.
Please in the name of God do something urgent on that road.
