The Bishop further issued a powerful and heartfelt appeal, urging husbands to provide comprehensive and unwavering care for their wives, emphasizing that such support is a fundamental cornerstone of a strong and resilient family unit.

In a significant development for the diocese, Bishop Mbitse officially launched a roofing campaign for the new cathedral currently under construction, a major project with an overall budget of one billion shillings.
The current roofing phase requires over 3200 iron sheets at a cost of 120000 shillings each and will culminate in a completed cathedral with a seating capacity for over 3000 worshippers.
Bishop Mbitse took the opportunity to express his gratitude to Christians and well-wishers for their generous contributions thus far and appealed for continued support to see the project through.
