Ouagadougou: The Christian faithful of the Family Church of the Diocese of Ouahigouya celebrated the solemnity of the Feast of the Nativity in the different parishes. At the Saint-Michel chapel, housed within the 12th Commando Infantry Regiment of Ouahigouya, civilians and soldiers were in communion of prayer for the return of peace to Burkina Faso.
It was in an atmosphere tinged with joy and hope that the Catholic faithful welcomed the newborn in the Saint-Michel Archange chapel of the military Base Catholic Community (CCB) of the Notre-Dame de la Délivrande Parish of Ouahigouya.
For Father Raoul Konseimbo and the concelebrant priests of this Christmas Nativity Mass 2023, the grip is loosening on the people of God.
The sons and daughters of Family of God Church have been reassured that the Lord is there and the peace He announces is within reach.
All Christians must welcome this peace by opening their hearts. ‘Analyzing our contemporary world, we can be sad and worried by everything that happens and by c
ertain behaviors.
The Lord, through his birth, invites us not to be afraid and to live above all in hope to build a better world,’ said Father Raoul Konseimbo Director of the Diocesan Communication Center.
During the celebration, all the faithful, in the same spirit, prayed for the return of peace, for the FDS and VDP who, at the cost of their lives, remained committed to liberating our country.
The children were at the heart of the celebration and especially received advice and blessings from the military chaplain, Father Olivier Sawadogo, and the diocesan secretary, Father Jean Noël Ouédraogo.
