Nairobi, 24 June, 2023 / 9:03 pm (ACI Africa).
Children need to be nurtured to grow their variety talents, all for the greater Glory of own “and for our salvation”, the Local Ordinary of the Catholic Archdiocese of Nairobi in Kenya has told parents and teachers.
In his homily at the awarding ceremony that Holy Innocent Tassia Catholic School in Nairobi organized on Thursday, June 22, Archbishop Philip Anyolo Subira also cautioned parents and teachers against any form of discrimination.
“Allow and support the children to grow and nurture their talents. Every child is talented in his or her own way for God’s own greater glory and for our own salvation and sanctity,” Archbishop Anyolo said.
He added, “Every child here is a gift from God; take them uniquely and support them in a way that they will conform with the image and likeness of God.”
Archbishop Anyolo underscored the uniqueness of each of the children at the Catholic learning institution, saying, “Take them as they are so that you may combine their efforts, thoughts, and spirit to know that God is our creator, all of us.”
