This article is a presentation by Monsignor Mathieu Bondobo, Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Bangui, during the day of ongoing training for priests working in Bangui. We present here the first part concerning the Parish Pastoral Council and the second in the following issue.

Presentation on the XVI Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops during the day of ongoing formation of priests working in the Archdiocese of Bangui on Monday, February 11, 2025. It comprises three parts: the Preamble, the main text of the Second Session and the Postamble.

Father Mathieu Fabrice Evrard Bondobo, Vicar General and professor at the Saint Marc Major Seminary in Bimbo, held this conference at the Bangui Cathedral in this jubilee year to introduce the faithful to the meaning and practices of the Church on indulgences.

It was at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception in Bangui that this conference was held, led by a liturgist on the sacrament of reconciliation. Through his experience as a priest and as a professor at the Grand Seminary, Father Fagba returned to the importance of this practice to discover its riches.

Given the confusion that this creates in the title Monsignor for certain dignitaries in the Catholic Church, we are reproducing here the article Published on January 7, 2014 at 7:54 p.m. By Anita Bourdin of Zenit.org. ROME, January 7, 2014 (Zenit.org).

"Modern Martyrs, Victims of the Exploitation of Mineral Resources in Africa: Realities and Perspectives of the Church in Exit". This is the theme of a conference presented on October 12 in Rome by Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, Metropolitan Archbishop of Kinshasa (DRC) and President of the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar (SECAM). It was on the occasion of a hybrid webinar organized on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the canonization of the Martyrs of Uganda.

When we are born, we discover nature. It is nature that welcomes us. And we ourselves are part of this nature while having authority over it. From the beginning, God said: "fill the earth and dominate it." cf. Gen 1:28. Despite the depth and the firmament that surround man, the latter remains responsible for what happens there because he has received a mandate from the Creator. This is why he tramples everywhere to prove his domination. Man, through his scientific curiosity, has gone underground, dived into deep waters, walked on the moon, explored wild forests, climbed high mountains. Nature, through his research, is no longer foreign to him.

The Pope responded with these words: “They are all lives. The king was courageous because, faced with a law of death, he did not sign and resigned. It takes courage! It takes a politician “in trousers” to do this, it takes courage… Women. Women have the right to life: to their life, to the life of their children. Let us not forget to say this: an abortion is murder. Science says that one month after conception, all the organs are already there. You kill a human being, you kill a human being. And the doctors who lend themselves to this are – let me say – they are hired killers.”
