The good always die young.!
ReplyDeleteI received this sad news of the sudden departure to heaven of our beloved archbishop Anthony Mayala with total sorrow and shock!
Our Mayala has gone so early, so sooner than we least expected. That is why I agree with the philosophical saying above that "the good die young".
I personally join the community of the believers in his Archdiocese of Mwanza to pray for the repose of his Soul and strength and hope to all those who mourn for this Visionarist and progressive Bishop we have had ever in our time. He is our legend as far as the education and pastoral development in the Rock City is concerned.
He did lots of great things for his church and the entire community of MWANZA at large.
He was for everyone and he loved everybody regardless of who and what the person was. Baba Mayala you have left a legacy that will never go away unnoticed to each and everybody who experienced life with you and under you pastoral care as the archbishop.
We still hope that your good work that you have started in Mwanza will ever be continued by your successor. God is always good will give a good bishop in due season.
at the end of life you will be examined in love.. Ref. St John of the Cross.
May you now be examined in love for the Love you shared with your flock here on earth. Pray for us too so that we may struggle to be holy as you ascend the cosmic tidings to heaven.
Mayala wetu, we loved you absolutely but certainly God loved you more and said it is your turn to go back to the place Jesus had prepared for you the good and humble servant of His Church.
Eternal rest grant unto Archbishop Mayala O Lord and let your perpual and evalasting light shine unto him. May he rest in your heavenly peace. AMEN.
Kwa heri Mayala kwa heri askofu wetu. "Shigaga mhola guli seba"
