Universal Church #Cardinal Dieudonné NZAPALAINGA

Since the opening of their ordinary session on Monday, January 7, 2025, the bishops of the Central African Republic have closed this great moment at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception in Bangui with the participation of the President of the Republic.

Since January 6, 2025, after celebrating the 130th anniversary of the evangelization of Central Africa, the bishops of the Central African Republic have opened their ordinary session which will close on January 14, 2025. It is within their permanent See of Bimbo in the city of Bangui that these exchanges take place.

Since the beginning of the year 2024, the Church of God in Central Africa had opened the jubilee of the 130th anniversary of the evangelization of the nation. Apart from multiple activities organized in the different dioceses, it was from the 3rd to the 5th that everything was focused on the national level to celebrate and close this great moment.

It is part of his pastoral habits to celebrate a Mass the day after Christmas in the chapel of the Pediatrics of Bangui for sick children by giving them toys. A practice that not only rejoices the parents but rekindles hope in the hearts of these sick children forced to welcome Christ in the hospital. For this Jubilee Year, the Holy Father has once again shown himself very close to the Central African people by bending over these sick children. Thus he decided to decree the chapel of the Pediatrics of Bangui as a place of Plenary Indulgence during the Jubilee Year 2025.

During his pastoral visit to the parish of the Holy Trinity of Boyali on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, Cardinal Dieudonné Nzapalainga, Metropolitan Archbishop of Bangui gave the go-ahead for the jubilee activities of the said parish. Apart from his teachings and his exchanges with the faithful, the Cardinal amazed the young people with his dexterity in the game of football before the start of the organized match.
