Early in 2020, the idea of Small Pastoral Projects came to live when our Priests raised an issue that their parishes lacked liturgical equipment and materials, especially for the newly formed parishes. As Project Office, we found it necessary to support the communities in which these parishes are in to purchase some of the items for their Priest. We agreed to contribute 50 percent of the cost of every required item by any parish while the communities contribute 50 percent. A number of Parishes within the Diocese of Arua have already benefited from this initiative by Arua Project Office.

On Pentecost Sunday 2021, the Project Officer of the Diocese of Arua was invited by the Parish Priest of Lefori Parish, Fr. Daniel Drabe to join the Sunday Mass Celebration with the faithful.  During the Mass, the Project Officer handed over a new Chalice to Fr.Daniel in the presence of the faithful. The Project Office wished all the best and God’s blessing for the young Sub-Parish.

 

The 3rd of October 2021, was another day that the Project Officer Mr. Hannes Urban visited Oluvu Parish where he handed over a new set of Chasubles to the parish Priest, Msgr. Mathias Mati. This was during an early morning Sunday Mass Celebration at the Parish Church. The Parish Priest introduced Mr.Hannes Urban the Project Officer to the Christians who could not hold their excitement and explained to them how their Parish will continue collaborating with the Project Office of Arua.

 

On the 17th of October 2021.The community of Lefori Sub-Parish were excited to receive the Project Officer again in their Church. One set of Chasubles was given to the Parish Priest during Sunday Mass.
