Addressing worshippers on Saturday, the Governor commended the Seventh-day Adventist church for its contribution to moral guidance and the promotion of core Christian values, and called for partnerships in advancing peace.

The Governor of Central Equatoria State, Rabi Mujung Emmanuel, on Saturday joined the congregation at the Seventh-Day Adventist Central Church in Juba as part of his ongoing efforts to promote messages of peace and unity in the region.

 

‎While addressing worshippers, the Governor commended the Seventh-day Adventist church for its contribution to moral guidance and the promotion of core Christian values. He called on the church to work closely with the government in advancing peace, forgiveness, and reconciliation amidst ongoing challenges, including security and economic hardships.

‎‎He renewed his appeal to armed holdout groups in parts of the State to lay down their weapons and embrace the national peace process, reaffirming that the Presidential Amnesty remains in effect. The Governor highlighted the significance of homegrown peacebuilding initiatives as effective channels for addressing grievances and fostering lasting stability.

‎‎Governor Mujung also acknowledged the vital humanitarian role played by the Seventh-day Adventist Church through the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA).

‎‎“Security and unity are our collective responsibilities. I urge the church and all religious leaders to continue preaching and praying for peace, because peace and security are fundamental rights of every citizen,” Governor Mujung was quoted as saying.

‎‎On his part, Pastor Amoli Thomas, leader of the Greater Equatoria Field Adventist Church, affirmed the church’s commitment to partnering with the State government in promoting peace and nurturing Godly values among the people.

‎“You are the first sitting Governor to fellowship with us here. This reflects your humility and leadership for all. The Adventist Church genuinely expresses our willingness to work alongside your government in peacebuilding,” said Pastor Amoli.

‎‎In a related development, the Governor toured the ongoing construction of the Seventh-day Adventist Central Church building. The facility, expected to be completed by the end of the year, will include an auditorium and hall designed to accommodate over 3,000 worshippers. By Sylvester, The City Review
