Dogiyai, KAJPNews - Father
Agustinus Yeruwuan, OFM, Dean Father of Kamuu-Mapia Decant inaugurated and
blessed the building of Saint John Baptist Catholic Church Goodide. Parish Saint
Maria Ratu Rosari Idakebo, on November 20, 2016. The inaugurating and blessing
is coinciding with the Christ as King of the Universe.
From
monitoring of this media, thousands of Christian people have come to celebrate
the ritual of blessing. Pastoral Team of Saint Merry Immaculate Moanemani, Saint
Maria Ratu Rosari Idakebo and Kristus Terang Dunia Puweta also come there.
“I asked
to cut tape of church in order to open the door. Church couldn’t be church if
it commensurate with the role of custom, church and government,” said Father
Agustinus Yeruwuan, OFM, who often called Father Gusti before bless and cut the
tape of church’s door.
Therefore,
before open the church tape, father Gusti called representative of child as
young generation, adult as figure of tradition and village apparatus as
representative of government. He called them because he argued; people can’t
live alone because in people life of course there are church, tradition and
government. It means that the third unsure is need and complete each other.
After
open church’s door, father and Christian people go into church for pray as same
as on Sunday. But father and Christian people felt happy for inaugurating and
blessing the church building.
“Today is
happiness day for us, nature also feeling happy with us because by the God’s
own hand build this church and it done through small team, who worked hard,”
said Father Gusti in his homily.
He
continued, this is the fact that our church today is not mission church era,
because today is independently church era, from us by us and for us. It is the
church that we stand for ourselves and become the actors of saying. It is not
mission era that say let’s go all over world, tell the bible and Baptist them.
He said, that’s
why we have to faith Jesus as our king, who crucifies Himself to forgive our
sins. Jesus never taught us to fight each other, but He just taught us if your
left cheek is slap, give right cheek also.
He
continued, church inaugurating is beginning not final to unite us through our
faith to Jesus Christ as our King in develop this church in the future, because
just through the faith we could be united.
“I
believe and pray, even in the edge of this hill, but you’ll be united and
become leader for God’s coming and create the Lord’s Kingdom in the earth,”
closed him. (KAJPNews/Vigo)
