On September 29th, the faithful members of the St. Raphael community gathered to celebrate the Feast Day of their beloved patron saint. This year, the celebration took place at the home of one of their dedicated members. The parish priests, along with other esteemed clergy, were invited to join in commemorating this special day.
The celebration was a resounding success, filled with prayer, reflection, and a sense of unity among the attendees. The members were divided into three groups based on their proximity: the residents near the police station, the Muigai Lower Group, and the Muigai Upper Group.
The highlight of the day was the presence of the invited guests from South C, St. Anthony of Padua Jumuiya, whose words of wisdom and spirituality added a special touch to this memorable occasion.

Good afternoon Leaders, as a follow up to the brief highlight given by CJPD representatives during Mass today, kindly share the attached write up with your respective Jumuias and church groups.
We urge you to spare a few minutes in your next meeting to come up with more suggestions that we can implement as a community to reverse the negative effects of climate change.
Have a blessed week ahead 🙏🏼
